Intermediate spin state and the B1-B2 transition in ferropericlase
Ferropericlase (fp), (Mg_{1−x}Fe_{x})O, the second most abundant mineral in the Earth's lower mantle, is expected to be an essential component of the mantles of super-Earths. Here, we present an ab initio investigation of the structure and magnetic ground state of fp up to ∼3TPa with iron conce...
