Shock Events in the Solar System: The Message from Minerals in Terrestrial Planets and Asteroids
Impacts are central to the origin and evolution of planets of the Solar System. The shapes of craters, which can reach up to 1,000 km in diameter on the Moon, provide critical information on the large-scale dynamics of the impact and related shock. Minerals formed at high pressure and temperature found in shocked terrestrial rocks and meteorites give ...

A Resonant Beginning for the Solar System’s Terrestrial Planets
In the past two decades, transit surveys have revealed a class of planets with thick atmospheres—sub-Neptunes—that must have completed their accretion in protoplanet disks.

Terrestrial Planet Formation: The Solar System and Other Systems [PDF]
Accretion of terrestrial planets and solid cores of jovian planets is discussed, based on the results of our N-body simulations. Protoplanets accrete from planetesimals through runaway and oligarchic growth until they become isolated. The isolation mass of protoplanets in terrestrial planet region is about 0.2 Earth mass, which suggests that in the ...

Chromium isotopic insights into early solar system evolution and origin of terrestrial planets [PDF]
Les isotopes du chrome (Cr) jouent un rôle important dans la cosmochimie et les sciences planétaires car ce sont de puissants outils pour dater (chronométrie de courte période 53Mn-53Cr), tracer (anomalies nucléosynthétiques 54Cr) les origines des matériaux, et étudier les processus impliqués dans le fractionnement des éléments volatils et la ...

Late Accretion and the Origin of Water on Terrestrial Planets in the Solar System
<p>Terrestrial planets in the Solar system generally lack surface liquid water. Earth is at odd with this observation and with the idea of the giant Moon-forming impact that should have vaporized any pre-existing water, leaving behind a dry Earth.
