Figure 9
(a) The radial diffraction setup at the general purpose experiment of the ECB. In this particular case a sample of ferropericlase was heated to 1125 K (at a certain P) and isothermally compressed to 40 GPa (Marquardt et al., 2014BB38). (b) Map plot of the amplitude of X-ray diffraction (that is a stack of X-ray diffraction patterns obtained by integrating two-dimensional XRD images over azimuthal sectors of 5° 2θ). The map plot shows both non-hydrostatic strain (the waviness of the diffraction lines) and preferred orientation (amplitude heterogeneity along the diffraction lines). Simulation shown in the upper part. (c) Inverse pole figures of the compression direction of perovskite and ferropericlase at 1000 K and at ambient temperature. The different patterns of the inverse pole figures of the two phases show the features of their preferred orientation at different conditions of P and T [modified from Speziale et al. (2014BB59)].
