The influence of interior structure and thermal state on impact melt generation upon large impacts onto terrestrial planets
Impact melt efficiency on rocky planets is controlled by how deep the impact melts relative to the planet's cold outer layer, and the paper fits a formula to predict it across planet sizes, core sizes, and thermal ages.
