Experimental constraints on the differentiation of CM-like planetary embryos

This study investigates the onset of differentiation of hydrous (ice-bearing) planetary embryos in the early Solar System. To do so, we conducted high-pressure (1 GPa) melting experiments on a CM2 chondrite (MCY12002) across a temperature range of 1050-1400°C, with durations vary...
