The post-stishovite phase transition in hydrous alumina-bearing SiO2 in the lower mantle of the earth

TL;DR: The results suggest that the rutile–CaCl2 transition in natural stishovite (with 5 wt % Al2O3) should occur at ≈30 GPa or ≈1-000-km depth at mantle temperatures, and the major changes in elastic properties across this transition could make it visible in seismic profiles and may be responsible for seismic reflectors observed at 1,000- to 1,400- km depth.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sound velocity of MgSiO3 perovskite to Mbar pressure

TL;DR: In this article, the authors showed that the elastic wave velocities for a nearadiabatic lower mantle with a bulk composition dominated by magnesium silicate perovskite are consistent with the average lower mantle seismic velocity structure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polymorphic phase transition in Superhydrous Phase B

TL;DR: In this article, the authors synthesized superhydrous phase B (shy-B) at 22 GPa and two different temperatures: 1200°C (LT) and 1400°C(HT) using a multi-anvil apparatus.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of Al3+ and H+ on the elastic properties of stishovite

TL;DR: In this paper, X-ray diffraction and compositional data suggest that the incorporation mechanism of Al 3+ into stishovite involves the formation of oxygen vacancies, in addition to the incorporation H + in the structure.
