Origins of volatile elements (H, C, N, noble gases) on Earth and Mars in light of recent results from the ROSETTA cometary mission (2016, unknown): “%) of the Terrestrial mass (Righter, 2003), that is, ∼2 × 1025 g.”
Heterogeneous accretion, composition and core–mantle differentiation of the Earth (2011, background): “% S on the metal–silicate partitioning of the elements under consideration is insignificant (Li and Agee, 2001; Mann et al., 2009; Righter, 2003) and S is not included in the mass balance; however, 2 wt.”
A hydrogen-based oxidation mechanism relevant to planetary formation (2013, background): “Numerous authors have suggested that oxidation of the lower mantle could occur by disproportionation of FeO at high pressures to Fe metal and Fe2O3 components in post-spinel and perovskite form (Frost et al., 2004, 2008; Mao, 1974; Righter, 2003; Wade and Wood, 2005).”
