A new study by researchers at the University of Oxford, University of Leeds, and University College London has identified a ...

Researchers used atomic-scale computer simulations to discover the importance of carbon in forming a solid planetary core.

Strong new evidence suggests that primordial material from the planet’s center is somehow making its way out. Continent-size entities anchored to the core-mantle boundary might be involved.

For more than 100 years, scientists have puzzled over whether the Earth’s magnetic field had already been generated stably back in its early days when its inner core was fully liquid &ndash ...

However, the theory has a flaw: Earth's core was completely liquid before Earth's inner core crystallized—around 1 billion years ago.

The Earth’s inner core, a solid sphere predominantly composed of iron and nickel, occupies a central role in our planet’s evolution and geodynamo processes. Although hidden beneath thousands ...
