⭐️New Paper⭐️on contrasting textures and cooling timescales recorded in main group pallasites: doi.org/10.1016/j.epsl.2023.…. We find a simple model of a metal intrusion in the parent body quantitatively matches the observations. Work led by the brilliant Maeve Murphy Quinlan :)

Lots of interesting projects on offer @SEELeeds through the @PanoramaDTP like this one with me and @ChrisDaviesGeo hoping to figure out how Earth sustains its long-lived magnetic field
PhD projects are now being advertised @SEELeeds through the @PanoramaDTP. Fancy working @ChthonicJon and I to uncover the processes that have enabled Earth's magnetic field to survive for billions of years? This project could be for you: panorama-dtp.ac.uk/research/…. DM if interested!
