Abstract: How hot is the Earth's core? The question can be tackled in various ways. Now we have a new, ab initio , approach, one that involves application of developments in computational physics to devise a 'virtual thermometer'. It produces estimates consistent with those derived by other techniques, and may be broadly applicable in materials science.
