Notes. The oxides SiO2, MgO, FeO, Al2O3, CaO and TiO2 comprise the mantle. The core contains Fe and Si and has a mass fraction of CMF:=McoreMcore+Mmantle$\[\text {CMF}:=\frac{M_{\text {core}}}{M_{\text {core}}{+}M_{\text {mantle}}}\]$ (“core mass fraction”) with respect to the planet. All quantities are in wt%.
