Rock fluidization during peak-ring formation of large impact structures

Rock fluidization during peak-ring formation of large impact structures

Large meteorite impact structures on the terrestrial bodies of the Solar System contain pronounced topographic rings, which emerged from uplifted target (crustal) rocks within minutes of impact. To flow rapidly over large distances, these target rocks must have weakened drastically, but they subsequ...
