Constraining the survival of HCN during cometary impacts
Catriona H. McDonald, Amy Bonsor, Auriol S. P. Rae +3
Cometary impacts have been invoked as an atmosphere-independent method of stockpiling hydrogen cyanide (HCN), a key prebiotic feedstock molecule, into environments favourable for t…
The atmospheric entry of cometary impactors
Richard J Anslow, Amy Bonsor, Zoe R Todd +4
Cometary impacts play an important role in the early evolution of Earth, and other terrestrial exoplanets. Here, we present a numerical model for the interaction of weak, low-densi…
The plausibility of origins scenarios requiring two impactors
Richard J Anslow, Amy Bonsor, Paul B Rimmer +3
Hydrogen cyanide delivered by cometary impactors can be concentrated as ferrocyanide salts, which may support the initial stages of prebiotic chemistry on the early Earth. One way…
The distribution of impactor core material during large impacts on Earth-like planets
Jonathan P. Itcovitz, Auriol S. P. Rae, Thomas M. Davison +2
Large impacts onto young rocky planets may transform their compositions, creating highly reducing conditions at their surfaces and reintroducing highly siderophile metals to their…
