Liquid MgSiO3 is a model for the Earth’s magma ocean and of remnant melt present near the core-mantle boundary. Here, models for molten MgSiO3 are computed employing empirical potential molecular dynamics (EPMD) and results are compared to published results including two EPMD studies and three first-principles molecular dynamics (FPMD) models and to laboratory data. The EPMD results derived from the Oganov (OG) potential come closest to the density of MgSiO3 liquid at the 1-bar melting point inferred from the melting curve. At higher P, EPMD densities calculated from the OG potential and FPMD broadly match shock wave studies, with the OG potential yielding the better comparison. Matsui (M) potential results deviate from other studies above ∼50 GPa. Overall, results based on the OG potential compare best to experimental densities over the P-T range of the mantle. Isothermally, upon increasing P the mean coordination numbers () of oxygen around Si and Mg monotonically increase with pressure. Tetrahedral Si and octahedral Si monotonically increase and decrease, respectively, whereas pentahedral Si maximizes at 10-20 GPa. Tetrahedral Mg decreases monotonically as P increases whereas pentahedral, octahedral and higher coordination polyhedra each show similar behavior first increasing and then decreasing after attaining a maximum; the P of the maximum for each polyhedra type migrates to higher P as the CN increases. Free oxygen and oxygen with one nearest neighbor of either Si or Mg decreases whereas Si or Mg with two or three nearest oxygens (i.e., tricluster oxygen) increases with increasing P isothermally. The increase of tricluster oxygen is consistent with spectroscopy on MgSiO3 glass quenched from 2000 K and 0-40 GPa and high-energy X-ray studies constraining the coordination of O around Mg and around Si at 2300 K and 1 bar. Coordination statistics from FPMD studies for O around Si and Si around O are in agreement with the EPMD results based on the M and OG potentials. Mg self-diffusivity is greater than O and Si self-diffusivities for both the M and OG potentials. All D values monotonically decrease with increasing pressure isothermally and all atoms are more diffusive in the M liquid compared to the OG liquid except at T > ∼5000 K and P > 100 GPa. Previously published EPMD diffusivities fall between values given by the M and OG potentials, at least up to 45 GPa. The M liquid is generally less viscous than the OG liquid except at P > ∼80 GPa. Activation energy and volume are around 96 kJ/mol and 1.5 cm3/mol, respectively. The FPMD viscosity results at 120 GPa and 4000 and 4500 K are essentially identical to the values from the M and OG potentials. FPMD viscosity results are similar to the OG results for P < 60 GPa; at higher P, the FPMD viscosities are higher. At 4000 K and 100 GPa the shear viscosity of liquid MgSiO3 is ∼0.1 Pa s. More extensive laboratory results are required to better define the thermodynamic, transport and structural properties of MgSiO3 liquids and for comparison with computational studies.  相似文献

We have performed first-principles molecular dynamics simulations of CaAl2Si2O8 (anorthite) liquid at pressures up to 120 GPa and temperatures of 3000, 4000 and 6000 K. At the lowest degrees of compression the liquid is seen to accommodate changes in density through decreasing the abundance of 3- and 4-membered rings, while increases in coordination of network forming cations take effect at somewhat higher degrees of compression. Results are fit to a fundamental thermodynamic relation with 4th order finite strain and 1st order thermal variable expansions. Upon compression by a factor of two, the Grüneisen parameter (γ) is found to increase continuously from 0.35 to 1.10. Weak temperature dependence in γ is thermodynamically consistent with a slight decrease in isochoric heat capacity (CV), for which values of between 4.4 and 5.2 NkB are obtained, depending on the temperature. Pressure and temperature dependence of self-diffusivities is found to be well represented by an Arrhenius relation, except at 3000 K and pressures lower than 5 GPa, where self-diffusivities of Si, Al, and O increase with pressure. Analysis of the lifetimes of individual coordination species reveals that this phenomenon arises due to the disproportionately high stability of 4-fold coordinated Si, and to a lesser extent 4-fold coordinated Al. Our results represent a marked improvement in accuracy and reliability in describing the physics of CaAl2Si2O8 liquid at deep mantle pressures, pointing the way to a general thermodynamic model of melts at extreme pressures and temperatures relevant to planetary-scale magma oceans and deep mantle partial melting.  相似文献

We perform first principles molecular dynamics simulations of Mg2SiO4 liquid and crystalline forsterite. On compression by a factor of two, we find that the Grüneisen parameter of the liquid increases linearly from 0.6 to 1.2. Comparison of liquid and forsterite equations of state reveals a temperature-dependent density crossover at pressures of ∼12-17 GPa. Along the melting curve, which we calculate by integration of the Clapeyron equation, the density crossover occurs within the forsterite stability field at P = 13 GPa and T = 2550 K. The melting curve obtained from the root mean-square atomic displacement in forsterite using the Lindemann law fails to match experimental or calculated melting curves. We attribute this failure to the liquid structure that differs significantly from that of forsterite, and which changes markedly upon compression, with increases in the degree of polymerization and coordination. The mean Si coordination increases from 4 in the uncompressed system to 6 upon twofold compression. The self-diffusion coefficients increase with temperature and decrease monotonically with pressure, and are well described by the Arrhenian relation. We compare our equation of state to the available highpressure shock wave data for forsterite and wadsleyite. Our theoretical liquid Hugoniot is consistent with partial melting along the forsterite Hugoniot at pressures 150-170 GPa, and complete melting at 170 GPa. The wadsleyite Hugoniot is likely sub-liquidus at the highest experimental pressure to date (200 GPa).  相似文献

A thermodynamic model and equation of state (EOS) is developed from the molecular dynamics simulation experiments of Spera et al. (2009) for CaAl2Si2O8 liquid over the temperature range 3500-6000 K and pressure interval 0-125 GPa. The model is constructed utilizing the isothermal Universal EOS of Vinet et al. (1986) combined with an expression for the temperature-dependence of the internal energy derived from density functional theory (Rosenfeld and Tarazona, 1998). It is demonstrated that this model is more successful at reproducing the data than the temperature-dependent Universal EOS (Vinet et al., 1987) or the volume-explicit EOS of Ghiorso (2004a). Distinct parameterizations are required to model low (<20 GPa) and high (>20 GPa) pressure regimes. This result is ascribed to the affect of liquid structure on macroscopic thermodynamic properties, specifically the interdependence of average cation-oxygen coordination number on the bulk modulus. The thermodynamic transition between the high- and low-pressure parameterizations is modeled as second order, although the nature of the transition is open to question and may well be first order or lambda-like in character.Analysis of the thermodynamic model reveals a predicted region of liquid-liquid un-mixing at low-temperatures (<1624 K) and pressures (<1.257 GPa). These pressure-temperature conditions are above the glass transition temperature but within the metastable liquid region. They represent the highest temperatures yet suggested for liquid-liquid un-mixing in a silicate bulk composition. A shock wave Hugoniot curve is calculated for comparison with the experimental data of Rigden et al. (1989) and of Asimow and Ahrens (2008). The comparison suggests that the model developed in this paper underestimates the density of the liquid by roughly 10% at pressures greater than ∼20 GPa.  相似文献

Longitudinal acoustic velocities were measured at 1 bar in 10 Na2O-TiO2-SiO2 (NTS) liquids for which previous density and thermal expansion data are reported in the literature. Data were collected with a frequency-sweep acoustic interferometer at centered frequencies of 4.5, 5, and 6 MHz between 1233 and 1896 K; in all cases, the sound speeds decrease with increasing temperature. Six of the liquids have a similar TiO2 concentration (∼25 mol %), so that the effect of varying Na/Si ratio on the partial molar compressibility of the TiO2 component can be evaluated. Theoretically based models for βT and (∂V/∂P)T as a function of composition and temperature are presented. As found previously for the partial molar volume of TiO2 in sodium silicate melts, values of (13.7-18.8 × 10−2/GPa) vary systematically with the Na/Si and Na/(Si + Ti) ratio in the liquid. In contrast values of for the SiO2 and Na2O components (6.6 and 8.0 × 10−2/GPa, respectively, at 1573 K) are independent of composition. Na2O is the only component that contributes to the temperature dependence of the compressibility of NTS liquids (1.13 ± 0.04 × 10−4/GPa K). The results further indicate that the TiO2 component is twice as compressible as the Na2O and SiO2 components. The enhanced compressibility of TiO2 appears to be related to the abundance of five-coordinated Ti ([5]Ti) in these liquids, but not with a change in Ti coordination. Instead, it is proposed that the asymmetric geometry of [5]Ti in a square pyramidal site promotes different topological rearrangements in alkali titanosilicate liquids, which lead to the enhanced compressibility of TiO2.  相似文献

The solubility behavior of H2O in melts in the system Na2O-SiO2-H2O was determined by locating the univariant phase boundary, melt = melt + vapor in the 0.8-2 GPa and 1000°-1300°C pressure and temperature range, respectively. The NBO/Si-range of the melts (0.25-1) was chosen to cover that of most natural magmatic liquids. The H2O solubility in melts in the system Na2O-SiO2-H2O (XH2O) ranges between 18 and 45 mol% (O = 1) with (∂XH2O/∂P)T∼14-18 mol% H2O/GPa. The (∂XH2O/∂P)T is negatively correlated with NBO/Si (= Na/Si) of the melt. The (∂XH2O/∂T)P is in the −0.03 to +0.05 mol% H2O/°C range, and is negatively correlated with NBO/Si. The [∂XH2O/∂(NBO/Si)]P,T is in the −3 to −8 mol% H2O/(NBO/Si) range. Melts with NBO/Si similar to basaltic liquids (∼0.6-∼1.0) show (∂XH2O/∂T)P<0, whereas more polymerized melts exhibit (∂XH2O/∂T)P>0. Complete miscibility between hydrous melt and aqueous fluid occurs in the 0.8-2 GPa pressure range for melts with NBO/Si ≤0.5 at T >1100°C. Miscibility occurs at lower pressure the more polymerized the melt.  相似文献

We examined aluminosilicate glasses containing a variety of network modifying to intermediate cations (Li, La, Sc, and Fe), quenched from melts at 1 atm to 8 GPa, to further investigate the role of cation field strength in Al coordination changes and densification. 27Al Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (NMR) reveals that the mean Al coordination increases with increasing pressure in the Li-containing glasses, which can be explained by a linear dependence of fractional change in Al coordination number on cation field strengths in similar K-, Na-, and Ca-containing aluminosilicate glasses (K < Na < Li < Ca). Measured recovered densities follow a similar linear trend. In contrast, the La-containing glasses have significantly lower mean Al coordination numbers at given pressures than the cation field strength of La and glass density would predict. La L3 X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) spectroscopy results indicate a significant increase with pressure in average La-O bond distances, suggesting that La and Al may be “competing” for higher coordinated sites and hence that both play a significant role in the densification of these glasses, especially in the lower pressure range. However, in Na aluminosilicate glasses with small amounts of Sc, 45Sc NMR reveals only modest Sc coordination changes, which do not seem to significantly affect the mean Al coordination values. For a Li aluminosilicate glass, 17O MAS and multiple quantum magic angle spinning (3QMAS) NMR data are consistent with generation of more highly coordinated Al at the expense of non-bridging oxygen (NBO), whereas La aluminosilicate glasses have roughly constant O environments, even up to 8 GPa. Finally, we demonstrate that useful 23Na and 27Al MAS NMR spectra can be collected for Ca-Na aluminosilicate glasses containing up to 5 wt.% Fe oxide. We discuss the types of structural changes that may accompany density increases with pressure and how these structural changes are affected by the presence of different cations.  相似文献

Solubility and solution mechanisms of H2O in depolymerized melts in the system Na2O-Al2O3-SiO2 were deduced from spectroscopic data of glasses quenched from melts at 1100 °C at 0.8-2.0 GPa. Data were obtained along a join with fixed nominal NBO/T = 0.5 of the anhydrous materials [Na2Si4O9-Na2(NaAl)4O9] with Al/(Al+Si) = 0.00-0.25. The H2O solubility was fitted to the expression, XH2O=0.20+0.0020fH2O-0.7XAl+0.9(XAl)2, where XH2O is the mole fraction of H2O (calculated with O = 1), fH2O the fugacity of H2O, and XAl = Al/(Al+Si). Partial molar volume of H2O in the melts, , calculated from the H2O-solulbility data assuming ideal mixing of melt-H2O solutions, is 12.5 cm3/mol for Al-free melts and decreases linearly to 8.9 cm3/mol for melts with Al/(Al+Si) ∼ 0.25. However, if recent suggestion that is composition-independent is applied to constrain activity-composition relations of the hydrous melts, the activity coefficient of H2O, , increases with Al/(Al+Si).Solution mechanisms of H2O were obtained by combining Raman and 29Si NMR spectroscopic data. Degree of melt depolymerization, NBO/T, increases with H2O content. The rate of NBO/T-change with H2O is negatively correlated with H2O and positively correlated with Al/(Al+Si). The main depolymerization reaction involves breakage of oxygen bridges in Q4-species to form Q2 species. Steric hindrance appears to restrict bonding of H+ with nonbridging oxygen in Q3 species. The presence of Al3+ does not affect the water solution mechanisms significantly.  相似文献

We performed density measurements on a synthetic equivalent of lunar Apollo 17 74,220 “orange glass”, containing 9.1 wt% TiO2, at superliquidus conditions in the pressure range 0.5-8.5 GPa and temperature range 1723-2223 K using the sink/float technique. In the lunar pressure range, two experiments containing pure forsterite (Fo100) spheres at 1.0 GPa and 1727 K, and at 1.3 GPa-1739 K, showed neutral buoyancies, indicating that the density of molten orange glass was equal to the density of Fo100 at these conditions (3.09 ± 0.02 g cm−3). A third tight sink/float bracket using Fo90 spheres corresponds to a melt density of 3.25 ± 0.02 g cm−3 at ∼2.8 GPa and ∼1838 K.Our data predict a density crossover for the molten orange glass composition with equilibrium orthopyroxene at ∼2.8 GPa, equivalent to a depth of ∼600 km in the lunar mantle, and a density of ∼3.25 g cm−3. This crossover depth is close to the orange glass multiple saturation point, representing its minimum formation depth, at the appropriate oxygen fugacity (2.8-2.9 GPa). A density crossover with equilibrium olivine is predicted to fall outside the lunar pressure range (>4.7 GPa), indicating that molten orange glass is always less dense than its equilibrium olivines in the Moon. Our data therefore suggest that that lunar liquids with orange glass composition are buoyant with respect to their source region at P < ∼2.8 GPa, enabling their initial rise to the surface without the need for additional external driving forces.Fitting the density data to a Birch-Murnaghan equation of state at 2173 K leads to an array of acceptable solutions ranging between 16.1 and 20.3 GPa for the isothermal bulk modulus K2173 and 3.6-8 for its pressure derivative K′, with best-fit values K2173 = 18.8 GPa and K′ = 4.4 when assuming a model 1 bar density value of 2.86 g cm−3. When assuming a slightly lower 1 bar density value of 2.84 g cm−3 we find a range for K2173 of 14.4-18.0 and K′ 3.7-8.7, with best-fit values of 17.2 GPa and 4.5, respectively.  相似文献

We determined total CO2 solubilities in andesite melts with a range of compositions. Melts were equilibrated with excess C-O(-H) fluid at 1 GPa and 1300°C then quenched to glasses. Samples were analyzed using an electron microprobe for major elements, ion microprobe for C-O-H volatiles, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy for molecular H2O, OH, molecular CO2, and CO32−. CO2 solubility was determined in hydrous andesite glasses and we found that H2O content has a strong influence on C-O speciation and total CO2 solubility. In anhydrous andesite melts with ∼60 wt.% SiO2, total CO2 solubility is ∼0.3 wt.% at 1300°C and 1 GPa and total CO2 solubility increases by about 0.06 wt.% per wt.% of total H2O. As total H2O increases from ∼0 to ∼3.4 wt.%, molecular CO2 decreases (from 0.07 ± 0.01 wt.% to ∼0.01 wt.%) and CO32− increases (from 0.24 ± 0.04 wt.% to 0.57 ± 0.09 wt.%). Molecular CO2 increases as the calculated mole fraction of CO2 in the fluid increases, showing Henrian behavior. In contrast, CO32− decreases as the calculated mole fraction of CO2 in the fluid increases, indicating that CO32− solubility is strongly dependent on the availability of reactive oxygens in the melt. These findings have implications for CO2 degassing. If substantial H2O is present, total CO2 solubility is higher and CO2 will degas at relatively shallow levels compared to a drier melt. Total CO2 solubility was also examined in andesitic glasses with additional Ca, K, or Mg and low H2O contents (<1 wt.%). We found that total CO2 solubility is negatively correlated with (Si + Al) cation mole fraction and positively correlated with cations with large Gibbs free energy of decarbonation or high charge-to-radius ratios (e.g., Ca). Combining our andesite data with data from the literature, we find that molecular CO2 is more abundant in highly polymerized melts with high ionic porosities (>∼48.3%), and low nonbridging oxygen/tetrahedral oxygen (<∼0.3). Carbonate dominates most silicate melts and is most abundant in depolymerized melts with low ionic porosities, high nonbridging oxygen/tetrahedral oxygen (>∼0.3), and abundant cations with large Gibbs free energy of decarbonation or high charge-to-radius ratio. In natural silicate melt, the oxygens in the carbonate are likely associated with tetrahedral and network-modifying cations (including Ca, H, or H-bonds) or a combinations of those cations.  相似文献

Although, the kinetic reactivity of a mineral surface is determined, in part, by the rates of exchange of surface-bound oxygens and protons with bulk solution, there are no elementary rate data for minerals. However, such kinetic measurements can be made on dissolved polynuclear clusters, and here we report lifetimes for protons bound to three oxygen sites on the AlO4Al12(OH)24(H2O)127+ (Al13) molecule, which is a model for aluminum-hydroxide solids in water. Proton lifetimes were measured using 1H NMR at pH ∼ 5 in both aqueous and mixed solvents. The 1H NMR peak for protons on bound waters (η-H2O) lies near 8 ppm in a 2.5:1 mixture of H2O/acetone-d6 and broadens over the temperature range −20 to −5 °C. Extrapolated to 298 K, the lifetime of a proton on a η-H2O is τ298 ∼ 0.0002 s, which is surprisingly close to the lifetime of an oxygen in the η-H2O (∼0.0009 s), but in the same general range as lifetimes for protons on fully protonated monomer ions of trivalent metals (e.g., Al(H2O)63+). The lifetime is reduced somewhat by acid addition, indicating that there is a contribution from the partly deprotonated Al13 molecule in addition to the fully protonated Al13 at self-buffered pH conditions. Proton lifetimes on the two distinct sets of hydroxyls bridging two Al(III) (μ2-OH) differ substantially and are much shorter than the lifetime of an oxygen at these sites. The average lifetimes for hydroxyl protons were measured in a 2:1 mixture of H2O/dmso-d6 over the temperature range 3.7-95.2 °C. The lifetime of a hydrogen on one of the μ2-OH was also measured in D2O. The τ298 values are ∼0.013 and ∼0.2 s in the H2O/dmso-d6 solution and the τ298 value for the μ2-OH detectable in D2O is τ298 ∼ 0.013 s. The 1H NMR peak for the more reactive μ2-OH broadens slightly with acid addition, indicating a contribution from an exchange pathway that involves a proton or hydronium ion. These data indicate that surface protons on minerals will equilibrate with near-surface waters on the diffusional time scale.  相似文献

The composition and evolution of a metallic planetary core is determined by the behavior with pressure of the eutectic and the liquidus on the Fe-rich side of the Fe-FeS eutectic. New experiments at 6 GPa presented here, along with existing experimental data, inform a thermodynamic model for this liquidus from 1 bar to at least 10 GPa. Fe-FeS has a eutectic that becomes more Fe-rich but remains constant in T up to 6 GPa. The 1 bar, 3 GPa, and 6 GPa liquidi all cross at a pivot point at 1640 ± 5 K and FeS37 ± 0.5. This liquid/crystalline metal equilibrium is T-x-fixed and pressure independent through 6 GPa. Models of the 1 bar through 10 GPa experimental liquidi show that with increasing P there is an increase in the T separation between the liquidus and the crest of the metastable two-liquid solvus. The solvus crest decreases in T with increasing P. The model accurately reproduces all the experimental liquidi from 1 bar to 10 GPa, as well as reproducing the 0-6 GPa pivot point. The 14 GPa experimental liquidus ( [Chen et al., 2008a] and Chen et al., 2008b) deviates sharply from the lower pressure trends indicating that the 0-10 GPa model no longer applies to this 14 GPa data.  相似文献

Zinc uptake in suspensions (?3.7 g L−1) of MX80 montmorillonite was investigated at pH 4.0 and 7.3, a total Zn concentration ([Zn]total) of 500 μM, and dissolved Si concentrations ([Si]aq) of ∼70 and ∼500 μM in 0.5 M NaCl, by kinetics experiments and polarized extended X-ray absorption fine structure (P-EXAFS) spectroscopy. Differential thermogravimetric analysis verified the cis-vacant character of the montmorillonite. No Zn uptake occurred at pH 4.0, confirming that cation exchange was hampered by the high ionic strength of the suspension. At pH 7.3 and low [Si]aq (∼70 μM), Zn uptake occurred rapidly during the first hour of reaction, and then leveled off to 50 μmol/g montmorillonite at 168 h. The uptake rate is consistent with Zn sorption on pH-dependent edge sites. At pH 7.3 and high [Si]aq (∼500 μM), the initial sorption rate was similar, but Zn sorption continued, reaching 130 μmol/g at 168 h, and was paralleled by Si uptake with a Si/Zn uptake ratio of 1.51(10), suggesting formation of a Zn (hydrous) silicate. P-EXAFS data indicated that the first oxygen coordination shell of sorbed Zn is split into two subshells at 1.97(2) and 2.08(3)-2.12(2) Å for all EXAFS samples. These two distances are assigned to a mixture of tetrahedral (IVZn) and octahedral (VIZn) Zn complexes. The proportion of IVZn was lower in the high [Si]aq samples and decreased with reaction time. Al low [Si]aq and 216 h of reaction, nearest cationic shells of 0.6(4) Al in the film plane and 0.5(4) Si out of the film plane were detected at 3.00(2) and 3.21(2) Å, respectively, and were interpreted as the formation of IVZn and VIZn mononuclear complexes at the edges of montmorillonite platelets, in structural continuity to the (Al, Mg) octahedral sheets. At high [Si]aq, in-plane Zn and Al and out-of-plane Si neighbors were detected at 4 h, indicating the formation of Zn phyllosilicate nuclei at the layer edges. At 313 h, Zn-Al pairs were no longer detected, and Zn atoms were surrounded on average by 3.4(5) in-plane Zn at 3.10(1) Å and 1.7(9) out-of-plane Si at 3.30(2) Å, supporting the precipitation of a Zn phyllosilicate. Thus, dioctahedral Al phyllosilicate may act as a nucleating surface for the heterogeneous formation of trioctahedral Zn phyllosilicate at [Si]aq relevant to natural systems.  相似文献

The solubilities of the assemblages albite + paragonite + quartz and jadeite + paragonite + quartz in H2O were determined at 500 and 600 °C, 1.0-2.25 GPa, using hydrothermal piston-cylinder methods. The three minerals are isobarically and isothermally invariant in the presence of H2O, so fluid composition is uniquely determined at each pressure and temperature. A phase-bracketing approach was used to achieve accurate solubility determinations. Albite + quartz and jadeite + quartz dissolve incongruently in H2O, yielding residual paragonite which could not be retrieved and weighed. Solution composition fixed by the three-mineral assemblage at a given pressure and temperature was therefore bracketed by adding NaSi3O6.5 glass in successive experiments, until no paragonite was observed in run products. Solubilities derived from experiments bounding the appearance of paragonite thus constrain the equilibrium fluid composition. Results indicate that, at a given pressure, Na, Al, and Si concentrations are higher at 600 °C than at 500 °C. At both 500 and 600 °C, solubilities of all three elements increase with pressure in the albite stability field, to a maximum at the jadeite-albite-quartz equilibrium. In the jadeite stability field, element concentrations decline with continued pressure increase. At the solubility maximum, Na, Al, and Si concentrations are, respectively, 0.16, 0.05, and 0.48 molal at 500 °C, and 0.45, 0.27, and 1.56 molal at 600 °C. Bulk solubilities are 3.3 and 10.3 wt% oxides, respectively. Observed element concentrations are everywhere greater than those predicted from extrapolated thermodynamic data for simple ions, monomers, ion pairs, and the silica dimer. The measurements therefore require the presence of additional, polymerized Na-Al-Si-bearing species in the solutions. The excess solubility is >50% at all conditions, indicating that polymeric structures are the predominant solutes in the P-T region studied. The solubility patterns likely arise from combination of the large solid volume change associated with the albite-jadeite-quartz equilibrium and the rise in Na-Al-Si polymerization with approach to the hydrothermal melting curves of albite + quartz and jadeite + quartz. Our results indicate that polymerization of Na-Al-Si solutes is a fundamental aspect of fluid-rock interaction at high pressure. In addition, the data suggest that high-pressure metamorphic isograds can impose unexpected controls on metasomatic mass transfer, that significant metasomatic mass transfer prior to melting should be considered in migmatitic terranes, and that polymeric complexes may be an important transport agent in subduction zones.  相似文献

Based on our previous study of the intermolecular potential for pure H2O and the strict evaluation of the competitive potential models for pure CH4 and the ab initio fitting potential surface across CH4-H2O molecules in this study, we carried out more than two thousand molecular dynamics simulations for the PVTx properties of pure CH4 and the CH4-H2O mixtures up to 2573 K and 10 GPa. Comparison of 1941 simulations with experimental PVT data for pure CH4 shows an average deviation of 0.96% and a maximum deviation of 2.82%. The comparison of the results of 519 simulations of the mixtures with the experimental measurements reveals that the PVTx properties of the CH4-H2O mixtures generally agree with the extensive experimental data with an average deviation of 0.83% and 4% in maximum, which is equivalent to the experimental uncertainty. Moreover, the maximum deviation between the experimental data and the simulation results decreases to about 2% as temperature and pressure increase, indicating that the high accuracy of the simulation is well retained in the high temperature and pressure region.After the validation of the simulation method and the intermolecular potential models, we systematically simulated the PVTx properties of this binary system from 673 K and 0.05 GPa to 2573 K and 10 GPa. In order to integrate all the simulation results and the experimental data for the calculation of thermodynamic properties, an equation of state (EOS) is developed for the CH4-H2O system covering 673-2573 K and 0.01-10 GPa. Isochores for compositions <4 mol% CH4 up to 773 K and 600 MPa are also determined in this paper. The program for the EOS can be downloaded from www.geochem-model.org/programs.htm.  相似文献

Superliquidus metal-silicate partitioning was investigated for a number of moderately siderophile (Mo, As, Ge, W, P, Ni, Co), slightly siderophile (Zn, Ga, Mn, V, Cr) and refractory lithophile (Nb, Ta) elements. To provide independent constrains on the effects of temperature, oxygen fugacity and silicate melt composition, isobaric (3 GPa) experiments were conducted in piston cylinder apparatus at temperature between 1600 and 2600 °C, relative oxygen fugacities of IW−1.5 to IW−3.5, and for silicate melt compositions ranging from basalt to peridotite. The effect of pressure was investigated through a combination of piston cylinder and multi-anvil isothermal experiments between 0.5 and 18 GPa at 1900 °C. Oxidation states of siderophile elements in the silicate melt as well as effect of carbon saturation on partitioning are also derived from these results. For some elements (e.g. Ga, Ge, W, V, Zn) the observed temperature dependence does not define trends parallel to those modeled using metal-metal oxide free energy data. We correct partitioning data for solute interactions in the metallic liquid and provide a parameterization utilized in extrapolating these results to the P-T-X conditions proposed by various core formation models. A single-stage core formation model reproduces the mantle abundances of several siderophile elements (Ni, Co, Cr, Mn, Mo, W, Zn) for core-mantle equilibration at pressures from 32 to 42 GPa along the solidus of a deep peridotitic magma ocean (∼3000 K for this pressure range) and oxygen fugacities relevant to the FeO content of the present-day mantle. However, these P-T-fO2 conditions cannot produce the observed concentrations of Ga, Ge, V, Nb, As and P. For more reducing conditions, the P-T solution domain for single stage core formation occurs at subsolidus conditions and still cannot account for the abundances of Ge, Nb and P. Continuous core formation at the base of a magma ocean at P-T conditions constrained by the peridotite liquidus and fixed fO2 yields concentrations matching observed values for Ni, Co, Cr, Zn, Mn and W but underestimates the core/mantle partitioning observed for other elements, notably V, which can be reconciled if accretion began under reducing conditions with progressive oxidation to fO2 conditions consistent with the current concentration of FeO in the mantle as proposed by Wade and Wood (2005). However, neither oxygen fugacity path is capable of accounting for the depletions of Ga and Ge in the Earth’s mantle. To better understand core formation, we need further tests integrating the currently poorly-known effects of light elements and more complex conditions of accretion and differentiation such as giant impacts and incomplete equilibration.  相似文献

Compression of MgSiO3 glass in a 6/8 multianvil apparatus to 10.0 ± 0.5 GPa results in demonstrable changes in density and silicon coordination. Under high-pressure, samples were heated over a range of temperatures from 300 to 773 K, quenched to room temperature and decompressed at rates of 10.4 and 0.08 GPa/min. Recovered glasses have bulk densities that are 2.6-11.0% higher than the non-compressed glass. 29Si MAS NMR spectra of compressed glasses show narrowing of the [4]Si peak resulting from a reduction in the spread of the Si-O-Si bond angle distribution. After heating and rapid decompression, 29Si MAS NMR spectra of recovered glasses exhibit peaks assignable to [4]Si, [5]Si, and [6]Si with relative fractions of 0.945, 0.045, and 0.008, respectively. These changes in Si coordination and in Si-O-Si bond angle distribution with pressure only represent part of the structural changes associated with permanent densification of heated and unheated samples. The abundance of [6]Si is found to be insensitive to decompression rate, while [5]Si reverts to [4]Si on slow decompression at room temperature. These observations demonstrate that high-coordinated silicon species in MgSiO3 glass are formed on compression below glass transition temperatures and that pressure-induced structural changes can be preserved with rapid decompression. The ease with which [5]Si reverts to [4]Si during decompression suggests that the conversion of [4]Si → [5]Si principally involves short-range atomic displacement. The reversible and irreversible features of densification of MgSiO3 glass, provide insights into the fundamental structural and rheological properties of refractory silicate melts similar to those found in the Earth’s mantle.  相似文献

H2O diffusion in dacitic melt was investigated at 0.48-0.95 GPa and 786-893 K in a piston-cylinder apparatus. The diffusion couple design was used, in which a nominally dry dacitic glass makes one half and is juxtaposed with a hydrous dacitic glass containing up to ∼8 wt.% total water (H2Ot). H2O concentration profiles were measured on quenched glasses with infrared microspectroscopy. The H2O diffusivity in dacite increases rapidly with water content under experimental conditions, similar to previous measurements at the same temperature but at pressure <0.15 GPa. However, compared with the low-pressure data, H2O diffusion at high pressure is systematically slower. H2O diffusion profiles in dacite can be modeled by assuming molecular H2O (H2Om) is the diffusing species. Total H2O diffusivity DH2Ot within 786-1798 K, 0-1 GPa, and 0-8 wt.% H2Ot can be expressed as: where DH2Ot is in m2/s, T is temperature in K, P is pressure in GPa, K = exp(1.49 − 2634/T) is the equilibrium constant of speciation reaction (H2Om+O?2OH) in the melt, X = C/18.015/[C/18.015 + (100 − C)/33.82], C is wt.% of H2Ot, and 18.015 and 33.82 g/mol correspond to the molar masses of H2O and anhydrous dacite on a single oxygen basis. Compared to H2O diffusion in rhyolite, diffusivity in dacite is lower at intermediate temperatures but higher at superliquidus temperatures. This general H2O diffusivity expression can be applied to a broad range of geological conditions, including both magma chamber processes and volcanic eruption dynamics from conduit to the surface.  相似文献

We present new high-pressure temperature experiments on melting phase relations of Fe-C-S systems with applications to metallic core formation in planetary interiors. Experiments were performed on Fe-5 wt% C-5 wt% S and Fe-5 wt% C-15 wt% S at 2-6 GPa and 1050-2000 °C in MgO capsules and on Fe-13 wt% S, Fe-5 wt% S, and Fe-1.4 wt% S at 2 GPa and 1600 °C in graphite capsules. Our experiments show that: (a) At a given P-T, the solubility of carbon in iron-rich metallic melt decreases modestly with increasing sulfur content and at sufficiently high concentration, the interaction between carbon and sulfur can cause formation of two immiscible melts, one rich in Fe-carbide and the other rich in Fe-sulfide. (b) The mutual solubility of carbon and sulfur increases with increasing pressure and no super-liquidus immiscibility in Fe-rich compositions is likely expected at pressures greater than 5-6 GPa even for bulk compositions that are volatile-rich. (c) The liquidus temperature in the Fe-C-S ternary is significantly different compared to the binary liquidus in the Fe-C and Fe-S systems. At 6 GPa, the liquidus of Fe-5 wt% C-5 wt% S is 150-200 °C lower than the Fe-5 wt% S. (d) For Fe-C-S bulk compositions with modest concentration of carbon, the sole liquidus phase is iron carbide, Fe3C at 2 GPa and Fe7C3 at 6 GPa and metallic iron crystallizes only with further cooling as sulfur is concentrated in the late crystallizing liquid. Our results suggest that for carbon and sulfur-rich core compositions, immiscibility induced core stratification can be expected for planets with core pressure less than ∼6 GPa. Thus planetary bodies in the outer solar system such as Ganymede, Europa, and Io with present day core-mantle boundary (CMB) pressures of ∼8, ∼5, and 7 GPa, respectively, if sufficiently volatile-rich, may either have a stratified core or may have experienced core stratification owing to liquid immiscibility at some stage of their accretion. A similar argument can be made for terrestrial planetary bodies such as Mercury and Earth’s Moon, but no such stratification is predicted for cores of terrestrial planets such as Earth, Venus, and Mars with the present day core pressure in the order ?136 GPa, ?100 GPa, and ?23 GPa. (e) Owing to different expected densities of Fe-rich (and carbon-bearing) and sulfur-rich metallic melts, their settling velocities are likely different; thus core formation in terrestrial planets may involve rain of more than one metallic melt through silicate magma ocean. (f) For small planetary bodies that have core pressures <6 GPa and have a molten core or outer core, settling of denser carbide-rich liquid or flotation of lighter, sulfide-rich melt may contribute to an early, short-lived geodynamo.  相似文献
