What leads scientists to believe that earth's inner core is a solid?

Scientists believe Earth's inner core is solid because of seismic waves from earthquakes that travel through the core, the behavior of seismic waves, and the way in which they are reflected or refracted. This information suggests that the inner core behaves more like a solid than a liquid. Additionally, studies of the Earth's magnetic field and the behavior of seismic shear waves also support the idea of a solid inner core.
