Thermal and rotational effects of giant impacts during terrestrial planet accretion
Adriana N. Postema, Simon J. Lock, Sarah T. Stewart
Terrestrial planets likely experienced one or more giant impacts during their formation that inflicted large thermal, chemical, and rotational perturbations. The early states of te…
Planetesimal Impact Vapor Plumes and Nebular Shocks form Chondritic Mixtures
Sarah T. Stewart, Simon J. Lock, Philip J. Carter +3
The origin of chondrules, and the chondritic sedimentary rocks that dominate the meteoritic record, is a long-standing problem in planetary science. Here, we develop a physical mod…
Silicate Melting and Vaporization during Rocky Planet Formation
Erik J. Davies, Phil J. Carter, Seth Root +4
Collisions that induce melting and vaporization can have a substantial effect on the thermal and geochemical evolution of planets. However, the thermodynamics of major minerals are…
