The Earth’s inner core, predominantly composed of iron with a minor admixture of nickel and light elements, is a critical component in understanding our planet’s magnetic field and thermal evolution.
A high-precision time measurement system based on the radioactive decay of manganese-53 was used to determine the precise age. This isotope was present in the early Solar System and decayed to ...
Continental clues: Modern continental rocks carry chemical signatures from the very start of our planet’s history, challenging current theories about plate tectonics. Researchers have made a new ...
Researchers used atomic-scale computer simulations to discover the importance of carbon in forming a solid planetary core.
Late-stage planetary collisions reshaped Earth and its neighboring planets, delivering water, altering their atmospheres, and ...
