Session Proposal: Connecting Planet Interior Modeling with Experiments and First-Principles Calculations (AGU25)

DI005
Connecting Planet Interior Modeling with Experiments and First-Principles Calculations

Session ID#: 247720

Session Description:
We welcome abstracts that explore the interior structure and dynamics of planets within the solar system and among exoplanets. A key focus is determining the physical and chemical properties of planetary materials under extreme conditions, including equation of state, elasticity, transport properties, phase transformations, phase diagram, melting behavior, chemical reactions, etc. Approaches include static and dynamic compression experiments combined with laboratory spectroscopies, synchrotron sources, or X-ray free-electron lasers. Computational studies using first-principles methods, molecular dynamics, and machine learning are also very welcome. We invite interior and geodynamic modeling efforts such as mass-radius models, magma ocean crystallization, oxygen fugacity, gas speciation, etc. Interdisciplinary studies combining multiple approaches are especially encouraged.
