Abstract

New approaches, which expand the ideas about the compositions and structures of the mantle of the Earth and terrestrial planets, are considered. New data indicate a more fractional structure of the deep layers of the Earth and the Moon. The experimental results at high pressures and temperatures allow modeling the change in the structure and properties of the most important components of the composition of the mantle and cores of the Earth and Moon, as well as the gas (Jupiter and Saturn) and ice (Uranus and Neptune) giants.
