Concentrations of argon-39 produced by cosmic rays in the metal in 30 meteorites are remarkably similar, but they are slightly higher than expected for the present solar-cycle-averaged flux of cosmic rays. This supports the idea suggested by Eddy (19

Cosmic-ray-produced 37 Ar ( t 1/2 = 35 days), and 39 Ar ( t 1/2 = 269 years) in the Fe-Ni phase of meteorites have been studied in connection with their implications for the radial gradient of cosmic ray particles. For the chondrite, Can˜on City, wh

The crystallization ages of a suite of Apollo 17 basalts from four different stations have been measured using the Ar-39 to Ar-40 stepwise heating technique. The rocks analyzed include all principal petrographic types found at Apollo 17 landing site.

The space erosion of stony meteorites has been determined to be 650μm 106y−1, while that of iron meteorites has been determined to be 22 μm 106y−1. The erosion rates are based on flux and size distributions of small particles in the solar syste

In order to evaluate the influence of the ocean dumping of sewage sludge upon the organic carbon fraction of sediments of the New York Bight, a study of carbon isotopic variations in surface sediments from the area has been completed. On the basis of

From a stepwise-heating experiment on neutron-irradiated samples of whole rock and a plagioclase separate, an Ar-40/Ar-39 age of 4.26 plus or minus 0.02 G.y. was determined for the Apollo 17 troctolite 76535. This rock is believed to have formed as a

We have heard earlier in this Discussion Meeting that from the systematics of Sr and Pb isotopes in lunar samples, it is possible to ascertain that the Moon had a solid crust about 4.6 Ga ago, that is, very soon after the formation of the solar syste

A review is presented of the radioactive and stable nuclides produced in meteorites by cosmic rays. The question of constancy of cosmic rays in time and space is considered along with the exposure ages of meteorites. (D.L.C.)

The cosmic ray exposure ages of six octahedrites and of the iron phase of one mesosiderite have been measured. Five of these meteorites are dated falls. From the results there is support for our previous suggestion of two major collisions in space, o
