Book Synopsis Theoretical Studies of Phase Transformations of Mantle Minerals by : Frederic C. Marton
Book excerpt: Theoretical computational methods of mineral physics are powerful tools with which to investigate the materials of the Earth's deep interior. Here I use both quantum mechanical and themodynamical models to study the phase transformations of mantle minerals, discussing the implications of my results for high-pressure, high-temperature experimental research, modeling of thermodynamic processes under geological conditions, and plate tectonics.
