Gravitational stability of iron-rich peridotite melt at Mars’ core-mantle boundary

Abstract Possible existence of dense iron-rich silicate melt layer above Mars’ core is important in understanding the nature and evolution of Mars. However, gravitational stability of iron-rich silicate melt in the Mars’ interior has not been well constrained, due to experimental difficulties in mea...
