Fermi-liquid behavior and thermal conductivity of {\epsilon}-iron at   Earth's core conditions
  The electronic state and transport properties of hot dense iron are of the utmost importance to geophysics. Combining the density functional and dynamical mean field theories we study the impact of electron correlations on electrical and thermal resistivity of hexagonal close-packed $\epsilon$-Fe at Earth's core conditions. $\epsilon$-Fe is found to behave as a nearly perfect Fermi liquid. The quadratic dependence of the scattering rate in Fermi liquids leads to a modification of the Wiedemann-Franz law with suppression of the thermal conductivity as compared to the electrical one. This significantly increases the electron-electron thermal resistivity which is found to be of comparable magnitude to the electron-phonon one. The implications of this effect on the dynamics of Earth's core is discussed.
