A 1500-year record of mercury isotopes in seal feces documents sea ice changes in the Antarctic

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment, 2023
Temporal and spatial variations in sea ice coverage at high Northern Hemisphere latitudes have been shown to affect the photodegradation of methylmercury in seawater and the mercury isotope signatures in biological samples, suggesting the potential of ...

Large Igneous Province Record Through Time and Implications for Secular Environmental Changes and Geological Time‐Scale Boundaries

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 1-26., 2021

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Timing and Provenance of Volcanic Fluxes Around the Permian‐Triassic Boundary Mass Extinction in South China: U‐Pb Zircon Geochronology, Volcanic Ash Geochemistry and Mercury Isotopes

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2023
Anomalous mercury (Hg) contents recorded near the Permian‐Triassic boundary (PTB) are often linked to Siberian Traps Large Igneous Province (STLIP) volcanism and the Permian‐Triassic boundary mass extinction (PTBME).

Investigation of 0+ states in mercury isotopes after two-neutron transfer

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2014
Using the high-resolution Q3D magnetic spectrograph at the Maier-Leibnitz Laboratory (MLL) Tandem accelerator in Munich, we studied 0+ excitations in the mercury isotopes 198Hg, 200Hg, and 202Hg after two-neutron transfer. We only observed 4-6 excited 0+

Compositions of mercury isotopes for lighting

open access: yes, 2015
Described herein is a mercury sample that has an isotopic composition that differs from the naturally occurring distribution of isotopes. In various configurations of an isotopically tailored mercury sample, the fraction of one or more isotopes is increased or decreased with respect to the natural fraction(s).

Mercury Elemental and Isotopic Abundances in Mercury‐Manganese Stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1999
Hg II abundances have been determined for 42 mercury-manganese (HgMn) stars by fitting synthetic spectra to observed spectra of the 3984 A Hg II line. Twenty of the stars had lines sharp enough to allow their Hg isotopic abundance mixes to be estimated. The Hg abundance is reported for more HgMn stars here than in any other single work.

Charge radii, moments, and masses of mercury isotopes across the N=126 shell closure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Combining laser spectroscopy in a Versatile Arc Discharge and Laser Ion Source (VADLIS) with Penning-trap mass spectrometry at the CERN-ISOLDE facility, this work reports on mean-square charge radii of neutron-rich mercury isotopes across the N=126 shell

Photonuclear Alchemy: Obtaining Medical Isotopes of Gold from Mercury Irradiated on Electron Accelerators

open access: yesMolecules, 2022
In our work, the photonuclear production of 198,199Au isotopes for nuclear medicine purposes was studied, and a method for their recovery from irradiated mercury was developed.

The Separation of the Isotopes of Mercury [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1920
WE have been successful in achieving a partial separation of the isotopes of mercury by evaporating, mercury at low pressure and condensing the evaporated atoms on a cooled surface. The rate of evaporation of the isotopes being inversely proportional to the square root of their atomic weight, and practically every atom leaving the liquid being ...

The Isotopes of Mercury [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1925
THANKS to generous financial assistance, for which I am indebted to the Department of Scientific and Industrial Research, I have been enabled to build a mass-spectrograph giving double the dispersion of the one previously in use. The final adjustments of this instrument are by no means complete, but it has already given results of great promise.
