Magnetic Properties of Iron Meteorites and Their Parent Bodies
This thesis investigates fundamental properties of the first planetary bodies of our solar system. Similar to Earth, some of these “planetesimals” underwent differentiation into a metallic core and a silicate mantle, and powered magnetic fields by the motion of their liquid cores via dynamo effect....
