Scientific paper

It is proposed that large-scale impact craters provide boundary conditions for the thermal and rheological history of Ganymede. On Ganymede as in the case of the moon, the ratio of the depth to the radius of the impact crater is about 1/5. Models of the heat flow from Ganymede suggest that the most realistic depths h for Gilgamesh and Hathor are 29 and 12 km, respectively.
