Periodic Reporting for period 1 - NEWDIA4Planet (Development of the new internally-heated diamond-anvil cell for planetary mineral physics: Application to high-pressure melting of H2O ice)

The front-line discoveries on high pressure mineralogy of planetary materials coincide with development of high pressure (P) and temperature (T) technology. Diamond anvil cell (DAC) experiment is a major approach to generate static P-T conditions up to that of Earth’s inner...
