摘要
The sound velocity of liquid Fe47Ni28S25 and Fe63Ni12S25 was measured up to 52GPa/2480K in externally resistance-heated and laser-heated diamond-anvil cells using high-resolution inelastic X-ray scattering. From these experimental data, we obtained the elastic parameters of liquid Fe47Ni28S25, K-S0=96.12.7GPa and K-S0=4.000.13, where K-S0 and K-S0 are the adiabatic bulk modulus and its pressure derivative at 1bar, when the density is fixed at (0)=5.620.09g/cm(3) for 1bar and 2000K. With these parameters, the sound velocity and density of liquid Fe47Ni28S25 were calculated to be 8.41 +/- 0.17km/s and 8.93 +/- 0.19 to 9.10 +/- 0.18g/cm(3), respectively, at the core mantle boundary conditions of 135GPa and 3600-4300K. These values are 9.4% higher and 17-18% lower than those of pure Fe, respectively. Extrapolation of measurements and comparison with seismological models suggest the presence of 5.8-7.5wt % sulfur in the Earth's outer core if it is the only light element.
