Solubility of silicon in liquid metal at high pressure: implications for the composition of the Earth's core

Silicon solubility in liquid Fe-rich metal was measured experimentally as a function of pressure, temperature and oxygen fugacity to determine if silicon could be a major light element in the Earth's core. At the P, T, fO2 conditions of the experiments, Si solubility in liquid metal increases w...
