This project focuses on understanding the dynamics of the Earth's primordial magma ocean by measuring the density of silicate melts at high pressures. It aims to develop a universal model for silicate melt density, which is crucial for studying the Earth's interior and its evolution.
The starting conditions for the Earth’s evolution were set by gravitational differentiation in the solidifying magma ocean.
Yet, a thorough understanding of the magma ocean dynamics and thus of the primordial Earth is lacking.
One key unknown is the density of silicate melts at high pressure, which determines whether the crystallizing phases rise or sink.
Magma density also governs the storage, spatial distribution, and migration of melts in the present-day Earth.
Densities of silicate liquids a…
