Journal ArticleDOI
Pressure-dependent isotopic composition of iron alloys.
Anat Shahar,Edwin A. Schauble,Razvan Caracas,Arianna Gleason,Mary M. Reagan,Yuming Xiao,Jinfu Shu,Wendy L. Mao +7 more
TL;DR: Based on the iron isotope fractionation of various iron alloys with pressure, Shahar et al. find that carbon and hydrogen are probably not primary components of the core, and suggest that hydrogen or carbon is not the major light-element component in the core.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrogen storage in molecular compounds
Wendy L. Mao,Ho-kwang Mao +1 more
TL;DR: A hydrogen clathrate hydrate that holds 50 g/liter hydrogen by volume and can be preserved to ambient P at 77 K shows the potential of developing low-T molecular crystalline compounds as a new means for hydrogen storage.
Journal ArticleDOI
High pressure chemistry in the H2-SiH4 system.
TL;DR: Pressure-induced solidification of the H2-SiH4 fluid shows a binary eutectic point at 72(±2) mol% H2 and 6.1(±0.1) GPa, above which the fluid crystallizes into a mixture of two nearly end-member solids, which can be regarded as doped hydrogen-dominant compounds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Symmetrization driven spin transition in ε-FeOOH at high pressure
TL;DR: In this article, structural and electronic spin transitions in high-pressure e -FeOOH were studied using a combination of high pressure X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES), XRD, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tetrahedrally coordinated carbonates in Earth’s lower mantle
TL;DR: Experimental evidence is presented that under the sufficiently high pressures and high temperatures existing in the lower mantle, ferromagnesian carbonates transform to a phase with tetrahedrally coordinated carbons, which may have significant implications for carbon reservoirs and fluxes, and the global geodynamic carbon cycle.
