The 14 pages that link to Earth's core, each with the reason it gives.

• Planetary differentiationBroader topic: It is the clearest large-scale product of metal sinking during terrestrial differentiation.

• Early EarthBroader topic: Its formation through metal sinking records the chemical sorting of early Earth.

• Inge LehmannNarrower topic: Her discovery refined the structure of the core beyond its previously known liquid region.

• Earth's crustNarrower topic: It completes the planet’s layered interior beneath the mantle and crust.

• Earth's massBroader topic: Its size and density remain central unknowns in models consistent with Earth's total mass.

• Earth's outer coreNarrower topic: The outer core is the liquid, convecting part of Earth's broader core.

• High-pressure mineral physicsRelated: High-pressure experiments constrain the core alloy's density, phase, and heat transport.

• Earth's inner coreNarrower topic: The inner core is the solid part of the broader metallic core.

• Harold JeffreysRelated: Jeffreys helped establish the seismic evidence that the outer core is liquid.

• Mineral physicsBroader topic: Mineral-physics constraints help evaluate the composition and physical state of core materials.

• Planetary coreBroader topic: It is the best-studied planetary core and provides the clearest model of layered metallic interiors.

• Internal structure of EarthBroader topic: Its iron-rich layers give the planet a distinct, dense center.

• Goldschmidt classificationBroader topic: Siderophile behavior helps explain which elements entered the core during Earth's formation.

• Geomagnetic poleRelated: Motion in the liquid outer core generates the field that models approximate.
