Article Synopsis
- Melting in deep rocky areas of planets is crucial for various geological processes like planet formation, seismic activity, and magnetic field generation, which helps us understand how planets evolve.
- The study investigates the melting curves and phase diagrams of CaO, a mineral relevant to Earth's lower mantle, using a deep learning model alongside molecular dynamics and first-principles methods.
- Melting temperatures of CaO were determined at different pressures, revealing values of 975, 850, and 755 K at zero pressure, and the research provides melting phase diagrams for CaO across a pressure range of 0-135 GPa.
The exploration of the physical attributes of the recently discovered orthocarbonate SrCO is significant for comprehending the carbon cycle and storage mechanisms within the Earth's interior. In this study, first-principles calculations are initially used to examine the structural phase transitions of SrCO polymorphs within the range of lower mantle pressures. The results suggest that SrCO with the phase exhibits a minimal enthalpy between 8.
