Sound velocities and thermal equation of state of fcc -iron-nickel alloys at high pressure and high temperature: Implications for the cores of Moon and several planets
Fcc-Fe-Ni alloy is believed to be the most dominant solid constitute of moderate-sized terrestrial planetary cores. Investigating the physical properties, especially the density and sound velocity of Fe-Ni alloys and comparing them with seismic observations is an indispensable approach to constructing compositional models for planetary interiors. In this study, we conducted sound velocity measurements on Fe-Ni alloys with 10 wt.% and 20 wt.% Ni up to ∼13.5 GPa and 1073 K, using the ultrasonic interferometry technique in a multi-anvil apparatus in conjunction with synchrotron radiation. By fitting the experimental data to finite strain equations, the bulk and shear moduli and their pressure and temperature derivatives are derived, yielding K S0 =145.8(14) GPa, G 0 = 73.2(7) GPa, K S0 ’ = 5.89(24), G 0 ’ = 2.89(8), (∂K S /∂T) P = -0.0181(12) GPa/K and (∂G/∂T) P = -0.0393(10) GPa/K for fcc-Fe 80 Ni 20 . An examination of the density-velocity relationship shows that compressional wave velocity is insensitive to temperature within the current pressure and temperature range, while shear wave velocity exhibits a large reduction with increasing temperature. Here, extrapolation of the sound velocities following the finite strain theories suggests that much slower Vs should be expected at pressure and temperature conditions corresponding to those of the lunar core. Possible core density and velocity profiles for other moderate planets and satellites, such as Mars, Mercury, and Ganymede are also calculated.

Analysis of several high-resolution infrared bands of perdeutero-spiropentane, C5D8
Perdeutero-spiropentane (C5D8) has been synthesized and infrared spectra were taken from 400 to 4000 cm-1 at low sample pressures in a 22 meter multipass cell. The spectral resolution (0.0015 cm-1) reveals thousands of individual rovibrational transitions for several fundamental bands occurring in the spectral region of 500 to 1100 cm-1. C5D8 ground state constants reported in a previous study of a ?15 parallel band at 1054 cm-1 [1] were improved significantly in the present work by adding combination-differences derived from ?16 parallel and ?24 perpendicular band analyses. The larger data set at higher J values also allowed determination of the ground state K? = 2 splitting constant (?2? = 0.76(2) ×10-9 cm-1). For ?16, the band origin is 847.16933(5) cm-1 and changes in upper state rotational constants are ?A = –0.0013411(5) and ?B = –0.0002021(1) (in units of cm-1). Overlapping, and in Fermi resonance with ?16, is a second parallel band which, from Gaussian calculations at the anharmonic level, is assigned as the b2 combination ?8+?12, with band origin of 840.5434(1) and ?A = –0.0003500(7) and ?B = –0.0003502(1) cm-1. For ?24 analogous values are 556.41453(2) and ?A = –0.00032295(9) and ?B = –0.00016782(4) cm-1. The analyses also yields accurate values for the changes in both quartic and sextic centrifugal distortion constants and, for ?24, values for the l-doubling constants q+ and q-. Theoretical calculations of the rovibrational parameters aided in the analysis and the numerical values are in good agreement with experimental results.

Achieving Highly Reproducible Results in Graphite-based Li-ion Full Coin Cells
Electrode materials, cathodes or anodes, are mostly evaluated in half coin cells where lithium (Li) metal is used. However, due to the instability nature of Li metal, the cycling performances of the half cells is more likely reflecting Li anode stability instead of the coupled electrodes, questioning the conclusions. Full coin cells utilizing graphite as the anode effectively assesses materials. But the key factors of preparing full coin cells with reproducible performances have rarely been discussed and overlooked leading to many inconsistent results. This work discusses the scientific gap between cell preparation and observed electrochemical performances to unveil the key parameters for achieving consistent and reliable results in full coin cells, critical for effective evaluation of any new materials tested under relevant conditions. The knowledge from this work is broadly applicable in other full cells systems such as Si-based full cells or Na-ion batteries.
