Low thermal conductivity of iron-silicon alloys at Earth’s core conditions with implications for the geodynamo

Thermal conductivity of Earth’s core affects Earth’s thermal structure, evolution and dynamics. Based on thermal conductivity measurements of iron–silicon alloys at high pressure and temperature conditions, the authors here propose Earth’s inner core could be older than previously expected.
