This project investigates the processes involved in Earth's formation through large impacts, focusing on how these events influenced the planet's evolution. By combining experimental and computational methods, it aims to enhance our understanding of the dynamics of early Earth and its geochemical processes.
Geochemical and geophysical observations indicate that much of Earth’s mass was accreted during large impacts between planetary embryos already differentiated into a metallic core and a silicate mantle.
These collisions played a crucial role in setting the stage for Earth evolution, including the initiation of plate tectonics, the generation of Earth’s magnetic field, and the development of life.
Each impact delivered prodigious amounts of energy, melting the projectile and the protoplanet's man…
