Tidal dissipation, magmatism and mantle convection on Io
Intense magmatism and volcanism in Jupiter’s moon Io is driven by tidal heating. Magmatic segregation from the mantle and heat-piping across the crust exports the tidal heat to space, maintaining a thermal equilibrium. Read more
Reconstructing the Mesozoic record of extra-terrestrial dust flux: implications for seawater chemistry and the solar system
Micrometeorites (<mm particles of extra-terrestrial or interplanetary dust) can be found in ancient sedimentary rocks (e.g. Read more
Lunar magnetism, moonquakes and mantle overturn
The Moon is enigmatic with a highly debated paleomagnetic record from Apollo samples1–4, and unusual seismic signatures from moonquakes5. Read more
Early Earth Magnetism: Exploring the role of Earth’s magnetic field in atmospheric evolution
Earth’s magnetic field is often included as a key planetary property for its habitability. This is because it is thought to protect Earth’s surface from harmful cosmic radiation, and prevents the atmosphere from being eroded by the solar wind1. Read more
Deciphering Extraterrestrial Magentism Using Magnetite Framboids
Within just ~5 Myr following the ignition of the Sun, our solar system transformed from a chaotic disk of dust and gas into an organised system of planetary bodies. Read more
