Single-crystal elasticity of the lower-mantle ferropericlase (Mg0.92Fe0.08)O

This study focuses on investigating the effect of the electronic spin transition of iron on the elasticity of the candidate lower mantle ferropericlase (Mg,Fe)O. This may be relevant to our understanding of the seismic velocity structures of the Earth’s lower mantle. The elastic constants of (Mg₀.₉₂...
