Reduced atmospheres of post-impact worlds: The early Earth

J. P. Itcovitz, A. S. P. Rae, R. I. Citron +4

Impacts may have had a significant effect on the atmospheric chemistry of the early Earth. Reduced phases in the impactor (e.g., metallic iron) can reduce the planet's HO inven…

Did Earth eat its leftovers? Impact ejecta as a component of the late veneer

Philip J. Carter, Sarah T. Stewart

The presence of highly siderophile elements in Earth's mantle indicates that a small percentage of Earth's mass was delivered after the last giant impact in a stage of 'late accret…

Large Impacts onto the Early Earth: Planetary Sterilization and Iron Delivery

Robert I. Citron, Sarah T. Stewart

Late accretion onto the Hadean Earth included large impacts that could have influenced early habitability, either by sterilizing the planet or alternatively catalyzing the origin o…

Tidal Evolution of the Earth-Moon System with a High Initial Obliquity

Matija Ćuk, Simon J. Lock, Sarah T. Stewart +1

A giant impact origin for the Moon is generally accepted, but many aspects of lunar formation remain poorly understood and debated. Ćuk et al. (2016) proposed that an impact that l…

Origin of the Moon

Robin M. Canup, Kevin Righter, Nicolas Dauphas +8

The Earth-Moon system is unusual in several respects. The Moon is roughly 1/4 the radius of the Earth - a larger satellite-to-planet size ratio than all known satellites other than…
