Broad elastic softening of (Mg,Fe)O ferropericlase across the iron spin crossover and a mixed-spin lower mantle
The elastic bulk modulus softening of (Mg,Fe)O ferropericlase across the iron spin crossover induces dramatic changes in its physical properties, including seismic P-velocities and viscosity. Here, we performed compression of powders of (Mg0.8-0.9Fe0.2-0.1)O in a piezo-driven dynamic Diamond Anvil C...
