Magnetic Evidence for a Partially Differentiated Carbonaceous Chondrite Parent Body

The textures of chondritic meteorites demonstrate that they are not the products of planetary melting processes. This has long been interpreted as evidence that chondrite parent bodies never experienced large-scale melting. As a result, the paleomagnetism of the CV carbonaceous chondrite Allende, mo...
