Oxygen Driving Hydrogen Into the Inner Core: Implications for the Earth's Core Composition

Abstract Earth's core should contain light elements to account for the density deficit relative to pure iron as inferred from seismic observations. Of particular interest is hydrogen, as planetary accretion models predict the delivery of water possibly sequestered in the core. In this study, we...
