Description
Post-Perovskite: The Last Mantle Phase Transition: Geophysical Monograph 174. 3, expected to occur for deep mantle conditions, was first announced in April 2004. A resulting revolution in our understanding of the D″ region in the lowermost mantle is well underway. Post-Perovskite: The Last Mantle Phase Transition (Geophysical Monograph Series) by Kei Hirose (Editor), John Brodholt (Editor), Thorne Lay (Editor), David Yuen (Editor) Publisher : American Geophysical Union Publication date : January 9, 2007 Edition : 1st Language : English Print length : 287 pages ISBN-10 : 0875904394 ISBN-13 : 978-0875904399 Item Weight : 3.15 pounds Dimensions : 8.7 x 0.75 x 10.8 inches Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Geophysical Monograph Series, Volume 174. Discovery of the perovskite to post-perovskite phase transition in MgSiO 3 , expected to occur for deep mantle conditions, was first announced in April 2004. This immediately stimulated numerous studies in experimental and theoretical mineral physics, seismology, and geodynamics evaluating the implications of a major lower mantle phase change. A resulting revolution in our understanding of the D″ region in the lowermost mantle is well underway. This monograph presents the multidisciplinary advances to date ensuing from interpreting deep mantle seismological structures and dynamical processes in the context of the experimentally and theoretically determined properties of the post-perovskite phase change; the last silicate phase change likely to occur with increasing pressure in lowermost mantle rocks.
