Apatite U-Pb Thermochronology: A Review [PDF]
Minerals, 2021 The temperature sensitivity of the U-Pb apatite system (350–570 °C) makes it a powerful tool to study thermal histories in the deeper crust. Recent studies have exploited diffusive Pb loss from apatite crystals to generate t-T paths between ~350–570 °C, by comparing apatite U-Pb ID-TIMS (isotope dilution-thermal ionisation mass spectrometry) dates with

Apatite: a U-Pb thermochronometer or geochronometer?
Lithos, 2018 Abstract Apatite is an accessory mineral that is frequently found in both igneous and clastic sedimentary rocks. It is conventionally considered to be characterized by a closure temperature range between 375 and 600 °C and hence has been employed to address mid-temperature thermochronology questions relevant to the reconstruction of thermal events in

Modeling apparent Pb loss in zircon U–Pb geochronology [PDF]
GeochronologyThe loss of radiogenic Pb from zircon is known to be a major factor that can cause inaccuracy in the U–Pb geochronological system; hence, there is a need to better characterize the distribution of Pb loss in natural samples.

Impact and Correction of Analytical Positioning on Accuracy of Zircon U-Pb Dating by SIMS [PDF]
Frontiers in Chemistry, 2020 Secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) is one of the most important analytical tools for geochronology, especially for zircon U-Pb dating. Due to its advantages in spatial resolution and analytical precision, SIMS is the preferred option for multi-spot ...
