HotCores investigates the Earth's inner core, focusing on the physical properties of iron alloys under high pressure and temperature. The project aims to understand the dynamics and evolution of the inner core, which plays a crucial role in maintaining the Earth's magnetic field.
The Earths inner-core (IC) is 1220 km radius planet within the Earth, made of solid iron (Fe) crystallizing from the outer core (OC) as the Earth cools down.
The IC affects our life at the surface; its growth provides a major source of energy for maintaining the Earths magnetic field.
One may view the IC as a freezing ball of Fe floating at the center of the OC, but seismic exploration reveal structures of increasing complexity, raising fundamental questions on the history and internal dynamics…
