Description | This provided HPC facilities for a large number of UK researchers in mineral physics. This produced work from the adsortion of Arsenic onto mineral surfaces, to estimates of the composition of the core. Recent highlights are new estimates for the composition of the Earth's inner and outer core. New insights into the role of water on the strengths of mantle minerals |
