The influence of interior structure and thermal state on impact melt generation upon large impacts onto terrestrial planets

Lukas Manske, Thomas Ruedas, Ana-Catalina Plesa +4

We investigate the melt production of planetary impacts as a function of planet size (=0.1-1.5), impactor size (=1-1000 km), and core size ratio ($R_\mathrm{…

Terrestrial planet surfaces and interiors

Ana-Catalina Plesa, Julia Maia, Solmaz Adeli +1

Rocky planets in our Solar System, namely Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, and the Moon, which is generally added to this group due to its geological complexity, possess a solid surfac…

Synergies between Venus & Exoplanetary Observations

M. J. Way, Colby Ostberg, Bradford J. Foley +9

In this chapter we examine how our knowledge of present day Venus can inform terrestrial exoplanetary science and how exoplanetary science can inform our study of Venus. In a super…

Interior Dynamics and Thermal Evolution of Mars -- a Geodynamic Perspective

Ana-Catalina Plesa, Mark Wieczorek, Martin Knapmeyer +3

Over the past decades, global geodynamical models have been used to investigate the thermal evolution of terrestrial planets. With the increase of computational power and improveme…

The long-term evolution of the atmosphere of Venus: processes and feedback mechanisms

Cedric Gillmann, M. J. Way, Guillaume Avice +11

This work reviews the long-term evolution of the atmosphere of Venus, and modulation of its composition by interior-exterior cycling. The formation and evolution of Venus's atmosph…

The habitability of a stagnant-lid Earth

N. Tosi, M. Godolt, B. Stracke +7

Plate tectonics is a fundamental component for the habitability of the Earth. Yet whether it is a recurrent feature of terrestrial bodies orbiting other stars or unique to the Eart…

Can a fractionally crystallized magma ocean explain the thermo-chemical evolution of Mars?

A. -C. Plesa, N. Tosi, D. Breuer

The impact heat accumulated during the late stage of planetary accretion can melt a significant part or even the entire mantle of a terrestrial body, giving rise to a global magma…
