Thermal interactions between Earth's core and mantle provide the power that maintains the geomagnetic field. However, the effect of these interactions and, in particular, the …
Seismological models from Apollo missions provided the first records of the Moon inner structure with a decrease in seismic wave velocities at the core–mantle boundary,–. The …
In the outer solar system, a growing number of giant planet satellites are now known to be abodes for global oceans hidden below an outer layer of ice. These planetary oceans are a …
Our understanding of the geodynamo has recently progressed thanks to geomagnetic data of improved quality, and analyses resting on numerical simulations of increasing realism …

The “new core paradox” suggests that the persistence of the geomagnetic field over nearly all of Earth history is in conflict with the core being highly thermally conductive, which makes …
The current morphology of Earth's time-averaged magnetic field can be approximated to a geocentric axial dipole (GAD), but whether such an approximation remains valid in deep …

The thermal conductivities of mantle and core materials have a major impact on planetary evolution, but their experimental determination requires precise knowledge of sample …
Paleointensities are key to understanding the formation and evolution of Earth and are determined from rocks which record magnetic fields upon cooling; however, experimental …

Motivated by modelling rotating turbulence in planetary fluid layers, we investigate precession-driven flows in ellipsoids subject to stress-free boundary conditions (SF-BC). The …
