Sonia Tikoo, an assistant professor of planetary sciences at Rutgers University, will give a talk titled "Evolution of the Lunar Core Dynamo" at 11 a.m. on Thursday, February 23, 2017, in the Greenewalt Lecture Hall as part of DTM's Weekly Seminar Series.
Tikoo received her Ph.D. in planetary science from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 2014. Her research has focused on lunar paleomagnetism and placing constraints on the temporal evolution and decline of the now extinct lunar core dynamo field. She also studies the physical effects of impact cratering events on planetary surfaces.
Coffee, tea, and a light breakfast will be served before the lecture at 10:30 a.m.
