The days when the Earth's inner core (IC) was viewed as a homogeneous solid sphere
surrounded by the liquid outer core (OC) are now behind us. Due to a limited number of data …

Hemispherical asymmetry is a prominent feature of Earth's inner core, but how this
asymmetry relates to core growth is unknown. Based on multiple-scattering modeling of …

The inner core is a planet within a planet: a hot sphere with a mass of one hundred
quintillion tons of iron and nickel that lies more than 5000 kilometres beneath our feet. It …

In contrast to the liquid outer core, the earth's inner core is mostly solid, and its composition
is more pure iron. Based on dynamic arguments related to the freezing process of the inner …

We investigate the hemispherical pattern in inner core velocity anisotropy using a new and
independent high‐quality data set of PKPbc‐PKPdf and PKPab‐PKPdf body wave …

The model of cylindrical anisotropy in the inner core (IC) states that seismic rays traveling
parallel to the Earth's rotational axis travel faster than those parallel to the equator. There …

The existence of hemispherical variation in the Earth's inner core is well‐documented, but
consensus has not yet been reached on its detailed structure. The uppermost layers are a …

Seismic evidence is presented for a high shear wave velocity, apparent discontinuity near~
100 km depth within a portion of Earth's inner core. Antipodally (> 179°) focused data are …

Differential travel times and waveforms of PKIKP and PKiKP phases in the 129°–141°
distance range, deconvolved for the effects of source time functions and average mantle …

We systematically searched for seismograms of waves diffracted around the inner core
(PKPCdiff) from all the temporary seismic arrays with data currently available at the IRIS …
