Abstract

The methods described so far have been used in investigations of the earth’s interior [1–7]. The earth is a natural high-pressure laboratory and provides a convenient object for the application of the methods used in high-pressure physics, which yield very illuminating information about the earth’s interior. Such applications to the physics of the earth were begun in 1952 by Magnitskii [8–10] and Birch [11].
