Schnabel, C. et al. (2004) Proton-induced production cross-sections and production rates of Ca-41 from Ni. Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section B: Beam Interactions with Materials and Atoms, 223-24, pp. 812-816. (doi: 10.1016/j.nimb.2004.04.150)

Abstract

Proton-induced production cross-sections of Ca-41 from Ni are presented. Moreover, depth-dependent production rates of Ca-41 from Ni were determined in a meteoroid simulation experiment. Based on these data, modelled production rates of Ca-41 from Ni in iron meteoroids are presented as a function of depth and size. These data are relevant for modelling the production rate ratio of Ca-41/Cl-36 in metal phases of meteoroids and thus for the application of the Ca-41-Cl-36 method to determine terrestrial ages of meteorites.
