Adiabatic heat flow in Mercury's core from electrical resistivity measurements of liquid Fe-8.5 wt%Si to 24 GPa
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of the core thermal conductivity on the heat flow along the adiabat was investigated using direct measurements of electrical resistivity of Fe8.5Si at pressures from 5-24 GPa and temperatures above melting.

Kristina Lekin,Alicea A. Leitch,Abdeljalil Assoud,Wenjun Yong,Jacques K. Desmarais,John S. Tse,Serge Desgreniers,Richard A. Secco,Richard T. Oakley +8 more
TL;DR: Benzoquino-bis-1,2,3-thiaselenazole QS, a heterocyclic selenium-based zwitterion with a small gap between its highest occupied and lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals is prepared.

Ionic to electronic dominant conductivity in Al2(WO4)3 at high pressure and high temperature
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the electrical conduction and crystal structure of Al 2 (WO 4 ) 3 at 400°C with high pressure up to 5.5 GPa using impedance methods and synchrotron radiation X-ray diffraction.
22
Pressure dependence of ionic conductivity of hydrated and dehydrated zeolites A
TL;DR: In this article, the anomalous increase in electrical AC conductivity at about 1.5 and 2.5 GPa observed in hydrated zeolites is associated with changes in crystalline structure leading to the formation of high-diffusion state of cation and water stuffing of the channels.
