The project aims to identify the light elements present in the Earth's inner core by studying the physical properties of iron alloys and compounds under extreme pressure and temperature conditions. Using advanced measurement techniques, it seeks to refine our understanding of the core's composition and its implications…
Since the discovery of the Earth’s internal structure and the existence of a dense metallic core about a century ago, the idea of iron being the dominant component of the core gained firm support confirmed by cosmochemical and geochemical observations, seismic data, the theory of geomagnetism, and high-pressure studies.
However, although closely matching, the velocities of seismic waves traveling through the core are significantly slower than those in a pure iron-nickel alloy.
The observed core…
