A laboratory model for iron snow in planetary cores
Résumé
We have carried out an experimental study of the dynamics of iron snow.
• Our experiments present crystallization cycles, with intense solidification bursts separated by quiet periods.
• This cyclic pattern is controlled by thermal di↵usion and by the amount of supercooling required for crystallization.
