New research reveals that Earth’s solid inner core is actually in a superionic state, where carbon atoms flow freely through ...

Deep inside Earth, researchers see signs that the solid inner core may be arranged in multiple chemical layers far below.

Scientists have identified two massive thermochemical formations at Earth's core-mantle boundary that refine understanding of ...

A groundbreaking study published in Nature Communications offers new insights into Earth’s inner core, potentially solving ...

While most of us take the ground beneath our feet for granted, written within its complex layers, like the pages of a book, is Earth's history. Our history. Research shows there are little-known ...

Geophysicists from ETH Zurich and SUSTech, China, have demonstrated the dynamo effect of the Earth’s core in a model in which viscosity has no influence, as is the correct physical regime for the ...

The solid inner core at the center of the Earth, surrounded by the outer core, mantle and crust. Here’s why: While it is well known that a material must be at or below its freezing temperature to be ...

The updated version of the World Magnetic Model was released on Dec. 17, with a new prediction of how the magnetic north pole will shift over the next five years. Here's why it was changed. When you ...
