Figure 1: Resistivity versus temperature of hcp iron at Earth’s core density. Figure 2: Our computed resistivities of hcp iron are compared with experimental results. Figure 3: Scattering rates ...

An analysis of Hawaii’s volcanic rocks revealed Earth’s core is leaking gold and other precious metals, a study found. The ...

Electron downpours can contribute ... energy pulse through Earth's magnetosphere – the magnetic field generated by the churning of Earth's core, which surrounds our planet and shields it from ...

Scientists are reporting unexpected discoveries about Earth's ... exist in the core." The researchers were surprised to find that when they examined the samples in an electron microscope, the ...

Pressure in the core squeezes iron to more than 1.6 times its normal density ... their paper on electron-electron scattering in iron under the conditions found in Earth’s core.

Traditionally, our understanding of Earth's rotation has been anchored in the assumption of a uniform density distribution in the mantle and core along the radial direction (extending from the ...

(That's the number followed by 24 zeros!) This carbon estimate could help solve the mystery surrounding the density of Earth's core, scientists said. You may like 'Primordial' helium from the ...

If Alfé is right, the Earth's inner core is either half as old, or twice as radioactive, as previously believed. "Earthquakes and seismic waves tell you a lot about the density [of the core ...

By testing different conditions, the researchers showed that these fragments would sink close to the core as long as their density was at least 2.5 percent higher than Earth's (1.25 percent more ...

This tilt may indicate that the northwestern hemisphere of the inner core might be slightly denser than the rest of this layer, and that there is also a difference in density between Earth's inner ...

In this Letter we reported density functional theory plus ... electron scattering at the conditions of Earth’s core, and found that the electron–electron scattering was about the same ...
