Lightning remagnetization of the Vredefort impact crater: No evidence for impact-generated magnetic fields
The Vredefort impact crater in South Africa is one of the oldest and largest craters on Earth, making it a unique analog for planetary basins. Intense and randomly oriented remanent magnetization observed in surface samples at Vredefort has been attributed to impact-generated magnetic fields. This p...
