Evaluating 14C and 14C/10Be terrestrial age dating systems for meteorites using experimental data and model calculations

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 60, Issue 5, Page 1263-1283, May 2025.
Abstract This study presents a refined approach to determine 14C saturation activities and 14C/10Be saturation activity ratios in chondritic meteorites with the goal to improve terrestrial age dating. By combining new model calculations for 10Be, 14C, and cosmogenic (22Ne/21Ne)cos, along with experimental data from 17 freshly fallen chondrites, we ...

The iodine-plutonium-xenon age of the Moon-Earth system revisited

open access: yes, 2014
From iodine-plutonium-xenon isotope systematics, we re-evaluate time constraints on the early evolution of the Earth-atmosphere system and, by inference, on the Moon-forming event. Two extinct radioactivites (129I, T1/2 = 15.6 Ma, and 244Pu, T1/2 = 80 Ma)

Extremely low long‐term erosion rates around the Gamburtsev Mountains in interior East Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The high elevation and rugged relief (>3 km) of the Gamburtsev Subglacial Mountains (GSM) have long been considered enigmatic. Orogenesis normally occurs near plate boundaries, not cratonic interiors, and large‐scale tectonic activity last occurred in ...

Revealing the Moon's Taurus‐Littrow Landslide via Integrated Analysis of Pristine Apollo 17 Soil Core 73001/2

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract The “light mantle” deposit at the base of South Massif in the Moon's Taurus‐Littrow Valley was a primary science target for the Apollo 17 exploration. The possibility that it was a landslide triggered by ejecta from Tycho Crater is critical for establishing the age of Tycho and constraining recent lunar impact chronology; however, the ...

Refining the Eruption Chronology of Atitlán Caldera Through Zircon Double‐Dating

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 26, Issue 3, March 2025.
Abstract Precise dating of Quaternary volcanism is vital for risk mitigation, understanding volcano‐climate interactions, and deciphering the evolution of large silicic magmatic systems. The Atitlán caldera in Guatemala has experienced major eruptions that challenge radiometric dating techniques and complicate eruption chronology in this densely ...

Composition, Mineralogy, and Noble Gas Content of Apollo 17 Particles and Soils From the 73002 Drive Tube

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 3, March 2025.
Abstract As part of the Apollo Next‐Generation Sample Analysis (ANGSA) program, we provide bulk composition, mineralogy, petrology, and noble gas assays of lunar particles and soils from the top half of the 73001/2 double‐drive tube (i.e., 73002) studied by the ANGSA consortium.

I-129 Waste form Using Bi-Zn-P-Oxide Glass

open access: yes, 2013
I-129 is a problematic nuclide generated from the recycling of spent fuel by pyroprocess. Gaseous form of radiogenic iodine is trapped by using silver exchanged zeolite (AgX) at Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI). We developed the low melting

Studying the Earth with Geoneutrinos [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Geo-neutrinos, electron antineutrinos from natural radioactive decays inside the Earth, bring to the surface unique information about our planet. The new techniques in neutrino detection opened a door into a completely new inter-disciplinary field of ...

Westernmost Grand Canyon incision: Testing thermochronometric resolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The timing of carving of Grand Canyon has been debated for over 100 years with competing endmember hypotheses advocating for either a 70 Ma (“old”) or
