Paleomagnetic evidence for a partially differentiated ordinary chondrite parent asteroid

The textures and accretion ages of chondrites have been used to argue that their parent asteroids never differentiated. Without a core, undifferentiated planetesimals could not have generated magnetic fields through dynamo activity, so chondrites are not expected to have experienced such fields. How...
