This research involves an integrated experimental and                      theoretical study of the elastic behavior and equation of state                 of important Earth-forming minerals at high pressure and                        temperature.  Material of specific interest include MgO, NaC1,                  SiO2, olivine (fayalite), (Mg,Fe,Cr)-spinels, and iron oxide                    (fexO) and sulfide (FexS).  Particular emphasis is being placed                 on an evaluation of higher-order elastic properties and their use               and significance in defining more accurate expressions for the                  equation of state in the very high pressure-temperature regime.                 A large cubic-anvil press system incorporating a solid-liquid                   pressure.
