Composition and state of the core
The composition and state of Earth's core, located deeper than 2,900 km from the surface,
remain largely uncertain. Recent static experiments on iron and alloys performed up to inner …

When water meets iron at Earth's core–mantle boundary
Hydrous minerals in subducted crust can transport large amounts of water into Earth's deep
mantle. Our laboratory experiments revealed the surprising pressure-induced chemistry that …

Interstitial hydrogen atoms in face-centered cubic iron in the Earth's core
Hydrogen is likely one of the light elements in the Earth's core. Despite its importance, no
direct observation has been made of hydrogen in an iron lattice at high pressure. We made …

Hydrogen distribution between the Earth's inner and outer core
L Yuan, G Steinle-Neumann - Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2023 - Elsevier
Hydrogen, the most abundant element in the universe, has likely been incorporated into
Earth's core due to its tendency to dissolve in iron at high pressure. Using machine-learning …
