Structural dynamics of basaltic melt at mantle conditions with implications for magma oceans and superplumes

Transport properties like diffusivity and viscosity of melts dictated the evolution of the Earth’s early magma oceans. We report the structure, density, diffusivity, electrical conductivity and viscosity of a model basaltic (Ca(11)Mg(7)Al(8)Si(22)O(74)) melt from first-principles molecular dynamics...
