Earth’s core is structured in a solid inner core, mainly composed of iron, and a liquid outer
core. The temperature at the inner core boundary is expected to be close to the melting point …

The quest for metallic hydrogen at high pressures represents a longstanding problem in
condensed matter physics 1, 2. Recent calculations 3, 4, 5, 6 have predicted that solid hydrogen …

… (P) data above 40 GPa are essential to constrain K 0 ' correctly. This Vinet fit reproduces the
V(P) … The combination of the present determination of ω LTO (P) and V(P) can provide some …

… & Loubeyre, P. Strong isotope effect in phase II of dense solid hydrogen and deuterium. …
The red line is the fit of the experimental data by a Vinet form 41 : P = 3K 0 (1 − X)X −2 exp[3/2(K …

… When we combined data from more than two trials, we did formal heterogeneity testing (we
considered P > 0.1 to be homogeneous) and calculated the I 2 value as a measure of the …

… With the present data, we cannot find any clear evidence that the pressure correction
should be negative at P 30 GPa, as proposed by Holzapfel; however, this possibility cannot be …

SOLID hydrogen is predicted 1,2 to become metallic at high pressures. Although metallization
was recently reported in high-pressure shock-wave compression experiments using liquid …

A new design for a diamond anvil cell is described. Its main originality is that the force on the
piston is generated by pressurized helium, which pushes an annular membrane. It specially …

… EOS parameters obtained by fitting the P-V data for compression in helium are presented
in Table III, along with previously published values. It can be seen in Fig. 1 that from …

… For this reason, the P-V points measured above 100 GPa during run 2 will not be taken
into account in the EoS analysis presented below. For run 6, the singlecrystal x-ray diffracted …
