“…Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth studies on K 0 of AlAlO 3 -bridgmanite (e.g., Zhang et al, 1999;Daniel et al, 2004;Yagi, et al, 2004;Walter et al, 2004Walter et al, , 2006, the reported data are highly scattered due to the strong variation of AlAlO 3 and MgAlO 2.5 components with pressure (Brodholt, 2000;Liu, Ishii, & Katsura, 2017), temperature (Brodholt, 2000;Liu, Akaogi, & Katsura, 2019), and Mg/Si ratio of the bulk composition (Andrault et al, 2001;Liu, Boffa Ballaran, et al, 2019) in the lower mantle. We therefore used dK 0 /dX = − 0.010 ± 0.003 GPa/mol for the AlAlO 3 component based on a theoretical study by Panero et al (2006).…”
