“…A basal magma ocean could potentially drive a dynamo if it is unstable to convection and has relatively sufficient electrical conductivity due to its molten nature and particularly high Ti and Fe content (Elkins-Tanton et al, 2011;Khan et al, 2014;van Kan Parker et al, 2012;Ziegler & Stegmen, 2013). The electrical conductivity of molten Fe-S alloy-peridotite system or ilmenite can reach 10 4 S/m (Pommier et al, 2024;Yoshino et al, 2004). If KREEP materials sank to the lunar CMB and their electrical conductivity ranged from 10 3 S/m to 2 × 10 4 S/m, a basal magma ocean would generate a magnetic field strength of 12-40 μT (Scheinberg et al, 2018).…”
