Revealing the interior structure of icy moons with a Bayesian approach to magnetic induction measurements
John B. Biersteker, Benjamin P. Weiss, Corey J. Cochrane +6
Some icy moons and small bodies in the solar system are believed to host subsurface liquid water oceans. The interaction of these saline, electrically conductive oceans with time-v…
Lifetime of the Outer Solar System Nebula From Carbonaceous Chondrites
C. S. Borlina, B. P. Weiss, J. F. J. Bryson +1
The evolution and lifetime of protoplanetary disks (PPDs) play a central role in the formation and architecture of planetary systems. Astronomical observations suggest that PPDs ev…
Paleomagnetic evidence for a disk substructure in the early solar system
Cauê S. Borlina, Benjamin P. Weiss, James F. J. Bryson +4
Astronomical observations and isotopic measurements of meteorites suggest that substructures are common in protoplanetary disks and may even have existed in the solar nebula. Here,…
History of the Solar Nebula from Meteorite Paleomagnetism
Benjamin P. Weiss, Xue-Ning Bai, Roger R. Fu
We review recent advances in our understanding of magnetism in the solar nebular and protoplanetary disks (PPDs). We discuss the implications of theory, meteorite measurements, and…
Meteorite cloudy zone formation as a quantitative indicator of paleomagnetic field intensities and cooling rates on planetesimals
Clara Maurel, Benjamin P. Weiss, James F. J. Bryson
Metallic microstructures in slowly-cooled iron-rich meteorites reflect the thermal and magnetic histories of their parent planetesimals. Of particular interest is the cloudy zone,…
Magnetic Fields Recorded by Chondrules Formed in Nebular Shocks
Chuhong Mai, Steven J. Desch, Aaron C. Boley +1
Recent laboratory efforts (Fu et al., 2014) have constrained the remanent magnetizations of chondrules and the magnetic field strengths at which the chondrules were exposed to as t…
