The nature of the Lehmann discontinuity from its seismological Clapeyron slopes

While the existence of the Lehmann discontinuity at 220 km in Earth's mantle has been known for over 40 years from seismology, it is still debated what causes this discontinuity. Here we report measurements of seismological Clapeyron slopes for the Lehmann discontinuity, which are key to explai...
