Core Mixing

Core Mixing is a geophysical process in planetary science that refers to the turbulent blending of chemically and thermally distinct materials within a planet's metallic core, driven by convection, rotation, and phase changes, thereby influencing core stratification, dynamo activity, and long-term thermal evolution.
