A Comparison of Experimental and Ab Initio Structural Data on Fe under Extreme Conditions

Iron is the major element of the Earth’s core and the cores of Earth-like exoplanets. The crystal structure of iron, the major component of the Earth’s solid inner core (IC), is unknown under the high pressures (P) (3.3–3.6 Mbar) and temperatures (T) (5000–7000 K) and conditions of the IC and exopla...
