Along- and Across-Arc Variations in the Southern Volcanic Zone, Chile [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Within Collaborative Research Center (SFB574), we are studying the changes in the chemistry of olivinebearing volcanic rocks along the volcanic front of the Southern Volcanic Zone (SVZ) in Chile and in the rear and backarc in Argentina.

Production of 21 Ne in depth-profiled olivine from a 54 Ma basalt sequence, Eastern Highlands (37° S), Australia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In this study we investigate the cosmogenic neon component in olivine samples from a vertical profile in order to quantify muogenic 21Ne production in this mineral.

Differing Controls on the Cycling of Neodymium in the Atlantic and the Pacific

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Neodymium (Nd) isotopes ratios are regarded as a key proxy for past ocean circulation despite unsettled debate on marine Nd cycle controls, which opposes a “top‐down” hypothesis (surface sources dominate) and a “bottom‐up” hypothesis (sedimentary sources

Earth-atmosphere evolution based on the new determination of Devonian atmosphere Ar isotopic composition [PDF]

open access: yes
The isotopic composition of the noble gases, in particular Ar, in samples of ancient atmosphere trapped in rocks and minerals provides the strongest constraints on the timing and rate of Earth atmosphere formation by degassing of the Earth's interior. We

Radiogenic backgrounds in the NEXT double beta decay experiment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Natural radioactivity represents one of the main backgrounds in the search for neutrinoless double beta decay. Within the NEXT physics program, the radioactivity- induced backgrounds are measured with the NEXT-White detector.

DATAMESOP: DATAset on Stable Isotope Measurement (Strontium, Oxygen and Carbon) of Archaeological and Non-Archaeological Materials from South-West Asia for MESOPotamia

open access: yesJournal of Open Archaeology Data
DATAMESOP is one of the first comprehensive isotopic datasets aimed at supporting bioarchaeological studies in ancient Mesopotamia. The dataset compiles radiogenic strontium and stable carbon, and oxygen isotope measurements from both archaeological ...

Recent Development in Radiogenic Isotope Geology

open access: yesJournal of Geography (Chigaku Zasshi), 1964
Several topics of the research in radiogenic isotope geology are briefly reviewed. This short review consists of four parts; (i) recent development in the instrumentation, (ii) in the methodology, (iii) topics on the mantle-crustal evolution on the basis of Pb, Sr isotope growth and (iv) geochronology of ocean floors.

A perspective from extinct radionuclides on a Young Stellar Object: The Sun and its accretion disk

open access: yes, 2011
Meteorites, which are remnants of solar system formation, provide a direct glimpse into the dynamics and evolution of a young stellar object (YSO), namely our Sun.

Seismic and isotopic evidence for depth-dependent mantle sources of intraplate basalts from Eastern China

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
The origin of intraplate basalts remains controversial, despite numerous isotope and seismic studies. Here we employ thermodynamic modeling with MAGEMin to integrate the Sr-Nd-Hf isotopes of basaltic volcanics with the seismic velocities of their mantle ...

Characterization of Modern and Fossil Mineral Dust Transported to High Altitude in the Western Alps: Saharan Sources and Transport Patterns

open access: yesAdvances in Meteorology, 2012
Mineral dust aerosols recently collected at the high-altitude Jungfraujoch research station (N, E; 3580 m a.s.l.) were compared to mineral dust deposited at the Colle Gnifetti glacier (N, E; 4455 m a.s.l.) over the last millennium.
