The timeline of the Lunar bombardment - revisited
A. Morbidelli, D. Nesvorny, V. Laurenz +5
The timeline of the lunar bombardment in the first Gy of the Solar System remains unclear. Some basin-forming impacts occurred 3.9-3.7Gy ago. Many other basins formed before, but t…
Formation, stratification, and mixing of the cores of Earth and Venus
Seth A. Jacobson, David C. Rubie, John Hernlund +2
Earth possesses a persistent, internally-generated magnetic field, whereas no trace of a dynamo has been detected on Venus, at present or in the past, although a high surface tempe…
Impact-induced melting during accretion of the Earth
Jellie de Vries, Francis Nimmo, H. Jay Melosh +3
Because of the high energies involved, giant impacts that occur during planetary accretion cause large degrees of melting. The depth of melting in the target body after each collis…
Oxygen isotopic evidence for vigorous mixing during the Moon-forming Giant Impact
Edward D. Young, Issaku E. Kohl, Paul H. Warren +3
Earth and Moon are shown here to be composed of oxygen isotope reservoirs that are indistinguishable, with a difference in Δ"17O of -1 +/- 5ppm (2se). Based on these data and our n…
Highly Siderophile Elements in the Earth's Mantle as a Clock for the Moon-forming Impact
Seth A. Jacobson, Alessandro Morbidelli, Sean N. Raymond +3
According to the generally accepted scenario, the last giant impact on the Earth formed the Moon and initiated the final phase of core formation by melting the Earth's mantle. A ke…
