During late-stage planet formation, giant impacts produce localized mantle melt regions within which impactor iron droplets settle to the bottom near a permeability horizon. After accumulation, iron heated by the impact migrates downward to the core through colder, mostly solid mantle. The degree of thermal equilibration and partitioning of viscous heating between impactor iron and silicates depends on the mechanism of iron transport to the core. Simple estimates suggest that, following a giant impact, the temperature difference between iron delivered to the core and the mantle outside the impact heated region can be $10 3 K. Hot impactor iron mergers with the core where it may be efficiently mixed or remain stratified due to thermal buoyancy. In either case, collisional energy carried to the core by impactor iron helps establish conditions favorable for early core cooling and dynamo generation. In this study, we consider the end-member scenario in which impactor iron forms a layer at the top of the core. Energy transfer from the impactor iron layer to the mantle is sufficient to power a dynamo for up to $30 Myr even in the limit of a very viscous mantle and heat flux limited by conduction. Using two-dimensional finite element calculations of mantle convection, we show that large-scale mantle flow driven by the buoyancy of the impact thermal anomaly focuses plumes in the impact region and increases both dynamo strength and duration. Melting within the mantle thermal boundary layer likely leads to formation of a single superplume in the location of the impact anomaly driven upwelling. We suggest that formation of magnetized southern highland crust may be related to spreading and differentiation of an impact melt region during the impact-induced dynamo episode.
