Planetary science: Iron fog of accretion
- Los Alamos National Lab. (LANL), Los Alamos, NM (United States)
Here, pinpointing when Earth's core formed depends on the extent of metal–silicate equilibration in the mantle. Vaporization and recondensation of impacting planetesimal cores during accretion may reconcile disparate lines of evidence.
