Hypothetical hyperbolic encounters between Venus and proto-Mercury that partially \ stripped away proto-Mercury's mantle
Hongping Deng
Mercury has an unusually large metal core comprising ~70% of its mass comparing to all other terrestrial planets in the solar system. Giant impacts can remove a significant fractio…
Primordial Earth mantle heterogeneity caused by the Moon-forming giant impact
Hongping Deng, Maxim D. Ballmer, Christian Reinhardt +4
The giant impact hypothesis for Moon formation successfully explains the dynamic properties of the Earth-Moon system but remains challenged by the similarity of isotopic fingerprin…
Local simulations of MRI turbulence with meshless methods
Hongping Deng, Lucio Mayer, Henrik Latter +2
The magneto-rotational instability (MRI) is one of the most important processes in sufficiently ionized astrophysical disks. Grid-based simulations, especially those using the loca…
Giant planets and brown dwarfs on wide orbits: a code comparison project
Mark Fletcher, Sergei Nayakshin, Dimitris Stamatellos +5
Gas clumps formed within massive gravitationally unstable circumstellar discs are potential seeds of gas giant planets, brown dwarfs and companion stars. Simulations show that comp…
A special giant impact model: implications on core-mantle chemical differentiation
You Zhou, Christian Reinhardt, Hongping Deng +2
The Earths core formation process has decisive effect in the chemical differentiation between the Earths core and its mantle. Here, we propose a new core formation model which is c…
