![]() ![]() And later she confesses that she noticed from the beginning he was the same boy that saved her because when they hooked up, Francis said that her bruise looked like a flower and that it was beautifulthe exact same words that the kid who saved her said to her when she was younger. ![]() When I embraced you for the first time, for me it was amiracle but for you it must have been the worst”Now I didn’t catch everything after that, but the heroine talks about a prince, and then Francis confesses that he’s actually a prince (I think xD, but again,not sure).The heroine then hugs him and says that she has always looked for him. When I realized that, I thought I shouldn’t touch you anymore. The ringwoodite transformed into another mineral called silicate perovskite, and transmission electron microscopy showed that the mineral contained silicate melt around single crystals of perovskite.When I thought that you could be her.I couldn’t help but want you.”“But I ignoredyour feelings and did as I pleased. They synthesized hydrous ringwoodite and recreated the temperatures and pressures it would experience in the transition zone by heating it with lasers and compressing it between hard, anvil-like diamonds.Using their setup, they then slowly increased the temperature and pressure to mimic the conditions in the lower mantle. 'Melting is just a mechanism of getting rid of the water,' Schmandt said.To test this hypothesis, Jacobsen and his colleagues conducted lab experiments to simulate what would happen to ringwoodite as it travels deeper into the Earth. Because the structure of minerals in the lower mantle can't trap water the way ringwoodite can, Schmandt and Jacobsen reasoned the rocks would melt as they flowed from the transition zone to the lower mantle. So Schmandt and geophysicist Steven Jacobsen of Northwestern University in Illinois set out to observationally test if other mantle ringwoodite also contains water.The researchers knew the crystal structure of ringwoodite allows the transition zone to hold water, but that structure changes if the material moves across the boundary to the lower mantle (due to increasing pressures and temperatures). ![]() 'Right now, we're one-for-one, because that ringwoodite had some H2O in it, but we didn't know if it was normal,' Schmandt told Live Science. Though the find suggested the transition zone could contain a lot of water, it was the first and only ringwoodite specimen from the mantle scientists have ever analyzed (all other samples were produced in the lab or found in meteorites), and may not be representative of other mantle ringwoodite. ![]()
