Short-range order stabilizes a cubic iron alloy in Earth’s inner core
Abstract Earth’s inner core consists of iron (Fe) alloyed with minor light elements, predominantly silicon (Si), yet the crystal structure and seismic velocities of Fe-Si alloys at inner-core conditions remain poorly constrained. Ab-initio methods struggle with the alloy’s vast configurational compl...
