Electronic and magnetic structures of the postperovskite-type Fe[subscript 2]O[subscript 3] and implications for planetary magnetic records and deep interiors

Recent studies have shown that high pressure (P) induces the metallization of the Fe[superscript 2+]–O bonding, the destruction of magnetic ordering in Fe, and the high-spin (HS) to low-spin (LS) transition of Fe in silicate and oxide phases at the deep planetary interiors. Hematite (Fe[subscript 2]...
