摘要
The phase boundary between ringwoodite and perovskite plus periclase in Mg2SiO4 was determined at 1600 degreesC under hydrous conditions with 1 similar to3 wt% H2O. We found that the boundary moved to high-pressure side by similar to0.2 GPa in these hydrous conditions compared with that in anhydrous condition. The SIMS measurements confirmed that the ringwoodite in hydrous condition contained a significant amount (similar to1 wt%) of water, whereas the perovskite accepted only very little (similar to0.05 wt%) water in its crystal structure. The discrepancy between the pressure of 660 kin seismic discontinuity and that of the postspinel transformation reported in a recent in situ x-ray study is not explained by the effect of water on the transformation.
