Structure of differentiated planetesimals: A chondritic fridge on top of a magma ocean
Meteorites are interpreted as relics of early formed planetary bodies, and they provide
information about the processes that occurred in the first few Myrs of our solar system. The …

Residence time of inertial particles in 3D thermal convection: implications for magma reservoirs
The dynamic behaviour of crystals in convecting fluids determines how magma bodies
solidify. In particular, it is often important to estimate how long crystals stay in suspension in …
