SiO<sub>2</sub> is one of the most fundamental constituents in planetary bodies, being an essential building block of major mineral phases in the crust and mantle of terrestrial planets (1-10 M<sub>E</sub>). Silica at depths greater than 300 km may be present in the form of the rutile-type, high pressure polymorph stishovite (P4<sub>2</sub>/mnm) and its thermodynamic stability is of great interest for understanding the seismic and dynamic structure of planetary interiors. Previous studies on sti ...[more]
