Geochemistry of mantle–core differentiation at high pressure

Jie Li, +1 more
- 01 Jan 1996 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the absolute and relative abundances of Ni and Co in the Earth's mantle are consistent with alloy-silicate chemical equilibrium at high pressure, indicating that core formation may have taken place in a magma ocean with a depth of 750-1,100 km.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structure type and bulk modulus of Fe3S, a new iron-sulfur compound

TL;DR: In this paper, a series of experiments in the system Fe-FeS at a pressure of 21 GPa and temperatures between 950 and 1400 °C were performed, and two new iron-excess iron-sulfur compounds, Fe3S and Fe2S, formed at subsolidus temperatures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pressure‐temperature phase diagram for the Allende meteorite

TL;DR: In this paper, Zhang and Herzberg showed that a terrestrial planet with a radius of ∼3000 km (maximum internal pressure of ∼30 GPa), and a bulk composition of carbonaceous chondrite, will upon magmatic differentiation form an FeO-rich silicate mantle with an Fe-Ni-S core.

Electronic spin state of iron in lower mantle perovskite

TL;DR: Experimental evidence for spin-pairing transition in aluminum-bearing silicate perovskite (Mg,Fe)(Si,Al)O(3) under the lower mantle pressures is presented and it is demonstrated that as pressure increases, iron in perovkite transforms gradually from the initial high- spin state toward the final low-spin state.
