- The compressibility of iridium was determined by energy-dispersive X-ray diffraction and synchrotron radiation up to a pressure of 65 GPa in the diamond-anvil cell. The bulk modulus (B-0) was determined to be B-0,=306 (23) with B-0'=6.8 (1.5) when using a

- The boundary between the Earth's metallic core and its silicate mantle is characterized by strong lateral heterogeneity and sharp changes in density, seismic wave velocities, electrical conductivity and chemical composition(1-7). To investigate the composition and properties of the lowermost mantle, an understanding of the chemical reactions that take place between liquid iron and the complex Mg-Fe-Si-Al-oxides of the Earth's lower mantle is first required(8-15). Here we present a study of the interaction between iron and silica (SiO2) in electrically and laser-heated diamond anvil cells. In a multianvil apparatus at pressures up to 140 GPa and temperatures over 3,800 K we simulate conditions down to the core-mantle boundary. At high temperature and pressures below 40 GPa, iron and silica react to form iron oxide and an iron-silicon alloy, with up to 5 wt% silicon. At pressures of 85-140 GPa, however, iron and SiO2 do not react and iron-silicon alloys dissociate into almost pure iron and a CsCl-structured (B2) FeSi compound. Our experiments suggest that a metallic silicon-rich B2 phase, produced at the core-mantle boundary (owing to reactions between iron and silicate(2,9,10,13)), could accumulate at the boundary between the mantle and core and explain the anomalously high electrical conductivity of this region(6).

- We have measured the pressure-volume (P-V) relations for cubic iron-nickel alloys for three different compositions: Fe0.64Ni0.36, Fe0.55Ni0.45, and Fe0.20Ni0.80. It is observed that for a certain pressure range the bulk modulus does not change or can even
