Thesis
Unlocking planetesimal histories using refined thermal evolution and dynamo generation models
- Abstract:
-
Accreting in the first few million years of the Solar System, planetesimals recorded conditions in the protoplanetary disk and formed the building blocks of the rocky planets. The meteorite paleomagnetic record carries key insights into the thermal history of planetesimals and their extent of differentiation. In this thesis, I use thermal evolution and dynamo generation models to translate meteorite magnetisations into planetesimal properties.
