Outline of Final Research Achievements |
I have studied the physical properties of the Earth’s core using a diamond anvil cell. I used synchrotron radiation in order to know crystal structures, states of electron of Fe, and sound velocities of samples. The phase relationships in the Fe-S system were investigated over 200 GPa and Fe3S was stable up to 230 GPa and 3000 K. I investigated pressure distribution in the alkali halides such as KBr, KCl, and NaCl under high pressure. KCl and KBr seem to be good pressure media and thermal insulators. The magnetic property of Fe3S were studied using Synchrotron Mossbauer Spectrocopy and its magnetic property disappeared above 20 GPa. The sound velocities of Fe3S were measured based on inelastic X-ray scattering up to 50 GPa and 1900 K in order to discuss the Martian core. Electronic state of Fe in FeO was also investigated based on Synchrotron Mossbauer Spectrocopy under high pressure and temperature.
