Late metal–silicate separation on the IAB parent asteroid: constraints from combined W and Pt isotopes and thermal modelling

<br/>The short-lived ¹⁸²Hf–¹⁸²W decay system is a powerful chronometer for constraining the timing of metal–silicate separation and core formation in planetesimals and planets. Neutron capture effects on W isotopes, however, significantly hamper the application of this tool. In order to correc...
