A new high-pressure form of Mg(2)SiO(4) highlighting diffusionless phase transitions of olivine

High-pressure polymorphism of olivine (α-phase of Mg(2)SiO(4)) is of particular interest for geophysicists aiming to understand the structure and dynamics of the Earth’s interior because of olivine’s prominent abundance in the upper mantle. Therefore, natural and synthetic olivine polymorphs have be...
