Abstract Precise determinations of the thermal conductivity of iron alloys at high pressures and temperatures are essential for understanding the thermal history and dynamics of the metallic cores of the Earth. We review relevant high-pressure experiments using a diamond-anvil cell and discuss implications of high core conductivity for its thermal and compositional evolution.

The phase stability of epsomite under a high temperature and high pressure were explored through Raman spectroscopy and electrical conductivity measurements in a diamond anvil cell up to ~623 K and ~12.8 GPa. Our results verified that the epsomite underwent a pressure-induced phase transition at ~5.1 GPa and room temperature, which was well characterized by the change in the pressure dependence of Raman vibrational modes and electrical conductivity. The dehydration process of the epsomite under high pressure was monitored by the variation in the sulfate tetrahedra and hydroxyl modes. At a representative pressure point of ~1.3 GPa, it was found the epsomite (MgSO4·7H2O) started to dehydrate at ~343 K, by forming hexahydrite (MgSO4·6H2O), and then further transformed into magnesium sulfate trihydrate (MgSO4·3H2O) and anhydrous magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) at higher temperatures of 373 and 473 K, respectively. Furthermore, the established P-T phase diagram revealed a positive relationship between the dehydration temperature and the pressure for epsomite.

ABSTRACTA method, based upon subtractive coloration or high-temperature reduction, was developed to produce metal precipitates or colloids in oxides. The structure, symmetry, morphology and composition of precipitates were analyzed by analytical electron microscopy and neutron scattering technioues. In the MgO:Ni system, the colloids were coherent nickel precipitates having a fcc structure (a0 = 3.52 Å), and occasionally a bcc structure (a0 = 2.88 Å). The coherent precipitates were analyzed to have either <100>m,∣∣ <111>p or <l00>m ∣∣<100>p matrix-precipitate orientation relationship depending upon the high-temperature reduction treatment. The optical absorption spectra of these materials were characterized by broad optical bands centered near 2.2 and 5.0 eV. By changing the size distribution of the precipitates, it was possible to obtain optical spectra of these materials suited for solar selective absorber applications. The dislocations and sub-boundaries provided nucleation sites for the formation of precipitates, and decreased the temperature of reduction. By providing sources of dislocations, the precipitates enhance the ductility and inhibit the propagation of cracks.
