Extended Data Fig. 5: Two-dimensional snapshots of a merger between the proto-Jupiter with a 17M⊕ core and a 1M⊕ impactor.
From: The formation of Jupiter’s diluted core by a giant impact
a, Density contours in the orbital plane before the impact; b, before the impactor arriving at the core; c, after the merger with the core; d, at about 10 h after the impact. Time in each panel is measured since the start of the simulation.
