Collisions between asteroids may lead to formation of metal asteroids able to generate and record magnetism: Study
An artist’s illustration of a metal asteroid. Credit: ASU/Peter Rubin Yale researchers may have solved a longstanding puzzle as to why certain metallic meteorites show traces of a magnetic field—a finding that may shed light on the formation of magnetic dynamos at the core of planets. Planetary magnetism is key to understanding both the internal
