A large planetary body inferred from diamond inclusions in a ureilite meteorite

Cécile Hébert, Emad Oveisi, Marco Cantoni, Philippe Gillet, James Badro, Farhang Nabiei, Teresa Katharina Dennenwaldt

Planetary formation models show that terrestrial planets are formed by the accretion of tens of Moon-to Mars-sized planetary embryos through energetic giant impacts. However, relics of these large proto-planets are yet to be found. Ureilites are one of the ...
