Effect of temperature on the densification of silicate melts to lower Earth's mantle conditions

EXAFS investigations on the pressure induced local structural changes of GeSe2 glass under different hydrostatic conditions

“…Moreover, structure of amorphous SiO 2 and other geophysical relevant glasses have been studied under high pressure together with noble gases in order to verify the possible storage and solubility of noble gases in silicate or other oxide melts [8,10,[13][14][15][16][17][18][19]. On the other hand, noble gases are widely used as hydrostatic pressure-transmitting mediums (PTMs) for high pressure experiments with diamond anvil cells (DACs) [20], thus the effect of noble gas PTMs on the pressure response of glassy systems needs to be clarified.…”
