Abstract
We performed ab initio molecular dynamics simulations of hexagonal-closed-pack iron to investigate its thermoelasticity in Earth's inner core P,T condition. Calculated elastic wave velocities are compared to seismological values. Based on the obtained results, we will discuss the inner core mineralogy.
