When the low-pressure liquid was compressed, dark and round objects appeared in the radiograph. X-ray diffraction measurements confirmed that these objects were the high-pressure liquid. The drops grew and eventually filled the sample space. Decompressing caused the reverse process. The macroscopic phase separation supported the view that it was a first-order liquid-liquid phase transition. X-ray absorption measurements revealed that the change in density at the transition is about 40 % of the density of the high-pressure liquid.

In situ X-ray diffraction experiments using synchrotron radiation have been performed upon a mixture of brucite (Mg(OH)) and graphite as starting material. Brucite decomposes into periclase (MgO) and H
O at 3.6 GPa and 1050
C while no periclase is formed after the decomposition of brucite at 6.2 GPa and 1150
C, indicating that the solubility of the MgO component in H
O greatly increases with increasing pressure. The conversion of graphite to diamond in aqueous fluid has been observed at 7.7 GPa and 1835
C. Time-dependent X-ray diffraction profiles for this transformation have been successfully obtained.
