The value of the thermal expansivity, alpha, over a wide range of compression, eta, and temperature is computed. Values of alpha for MgO over V,P,T conditions including those of the earth's lower mantle are suggested using a simple equation relating alpha to eta along isochores. The ab initio database is used to evaluate the parameters in the equation. The thermal expansivity is found to vary from about 1.40 alpha(a) to 0.40 alpha(a) along a geotherm through the upper and lower mantle, where alpha(a) is alpha at ambient conditions.
