- A sawtooth-like timeline for the first billion years of lunar bombardment (2012, methodology): “The abundance of HSE is remarkably similar in enstatite, ordinary and carbonaceous chondrites (see Table 1 in Walker, 2009).”
- The timeline of the lunar bombardment: Revisited (2018, methodology): “Following Ryder (2002) , hey tried to reconcile the LHB with the total mass accreted by he Moon since its formation, recorded in the abundance of the ighly siderophile elements (HSE) in rocks derived from the luar mantle ( Day et al., 2007; Walker, 2009; 2014; Day and Walker, 015 ).”
- Atmospheric mass loss during planet formation: The importance of planetesimal impacts (2014, unknown): “Furthermore, geochemical evidence from highly siderophile element (HSE) abundance patterns inferred for the terrestrial planets and the Moon suggest that a total of about 0:01 M of chondritic material was delivered as ‘late veneer’ by planetesimals to the terrestrial planets after the end of giant i”
- Magma oceans in the inner solar system (2012, background): “Because partitioning behavior is dependent on pressure and temperature, the depth of the magma ocean would determine the elements’ mantle abundances (Righter et al. 1997, Righter & Drake 1999, Walker 2009, Righter & Chabot 2011).”
- The Compositional Structure of the Asteroid Belt (2015, background): “The abundances of highly siderophile (metal-loving) elements in the Earth’s silicate mantle and crust are much higher than would be predicted since these elements should have gone essentially quantitatively into the Earth’s Fe-metal core during differentiation (Walker, 2009).”
