A scaling relation for core heating by giant impacts and implications for dynamo onset

You Zhou, Peter E. Driscoll, Mingming Zhang +2

Accretional heating of Earth's interior during formation is pivotal to its subsequent thermal and chemical evolution. In particular, impact heating of Earth's core is expected, but…

Recent advances in modelling of global-scale collisions using smoothed particle hydrodynamics

Christian Reinhardt, Sabina D. Raducan, Thomas Meier +3

Impacts play a fundamental role in shaping the physical and chemical properties of the objects in our Solar System. Given the challenges in replicating such collisions through labo…

The possibility of a giant impact on Venus

Mirco Bussmann, Christian Reinhardt, Cedric Gillmann +4

Giant impacts were common in the early evolution of the Solar System, and it is possible that Venus also experienced an impact. A giant impact on Venus could have affected its rota…

On the origin of Jupiter's fuzzy core: constraints from N-body, impact and evolution simulations

Thomas Meier, Christian Reinhardt, Sho Shibata +3

It has been suggested that Jupiter's fuzzy core could be a result of a giant impact. Here, we investigate the expected impact conditions from N-body simulations. We then use state-…

The Outcome of Collisions between Gaseous Clumps formed by Disk Instability

Yoav Matzkevich, Christian Reinhardt, Thomas Meier +2

The disk instability model is a promising pathway for giant planet formation in various conditions. At the moment, population synthesis models are used to investigate the outcomes…

A Systematic Survey of Moon-Forming Giant Impacts. II. Rotating bodies

Thomas Meier, Christian Reinhardt, Miles Timpe +2

In the leading theory of lunar formation, known as the giant impact hypothesis, a collision between two planet-size objects resulted in a young Earth surrounded by a circumplanetar…
