Post-Perovskite : the Last Mantle Phase Transition.
Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Geophysical Monograph Series. Discovery of the perovskite to post-perovskite phase transition in MgSiO3, expected to occur for deep mantle conditions, was first announced in April 2004. This immediately stimulated numerous studies in experim...
