GD8.1 | Structure, Formation, and Composition of Terrestrial Planetary Cores
EDI PICO
Structure, Formation, and Composition of Terrestrial Planetary Cores
Co-organized by EMRP1/PS1
Convener: Sébastien Merkel | Co-conveners: Eric Edmund, Jessica Irving

The structure and dynamics of the core of planets is essential to understand the planet's thermal, compositional and orbital evolution. This session seeks to showcase recent observational, theoretical and experimental developments in understanding the properties and dynamics of Earth's and terrestrial planetary cores.

We welcome contributions from seismology, mineral physics, geochemistry, geodetic observations, numerical modeling, and all related fields following theoretical, numerical, observational or experimental approaches aimed at providing input towards the global goal of deciphering the history and properties of terrestrial planetary cores.
