s-process Ba, Nd, and Sm in presolar SiC from the Murchison meteorite

Ion microprobe isotopic measurements of Ba, Nd, and Sm in the K-series SiC size separates on which noble gas measurements were made by Lewis et al. (1990) are reported. All elements show isotopic abundance patterns characteristic for the s-process. The Ba-134/Ba-136 ratios are distinct from solar, indicating that s-Ba in SiC is different from that in the solar system. Ba-138/Ba-136 ratios decrease with grain size; if interpreted as being due to different neutron exposures, this trend is opposite of that shown by the Kr-86/Kr-82 ratios. Although other isotropic ratios for Ba and those for Nd and Sm differ in detail from theoretical predictions, the disagreements probably being due to uncertainties in the n-capture cross sections and simplifications in the models, the general agreement of the data with models of s-process nucleosynthesis support an AGB star origin for the relatively fine-grain SiC under consideration. Ba-136 in SiC is up to 85 percent pure s-process.

U-Pu and Ba-Cs isotopic measurements on Trinitite by laser ablation sampling on the Neoma MC-ICP-MS

In this study we present the results of combined U-Pu and Ba-Cs isotope measurements obtained by laser ablation (LA) sampling of two glassy debris fragments (‘Trinitite’) from the world's first atomic bomb detonation conducted in New Mexico on July 16, 1945. Our primary goal in conducting these measurements was to understand whether examination of the U-Pu and Ba-Cs systematics by direct sampling (e.g. without any chemical separation or purification prior to isotope ratio measurement) could yield meaningful information that would differentiate the Trinitite fragments from glassy material lacking a nuclear fission signature. These measurements were conducted on a ThermoFisher Scientific Neoma multi collector – inductively coupled plasma – mass spectrometer (MC-ICP-MS), which is a relatively new MC-ICP-MS platform, so we also examine the behavior of these isotope systems in standards sampled in solution and via LA. Unsurprisingly, the measurements made on purified solutions of the U, Pu, and Ba isotopic standards produce high precision isotope ratios. Furthermore, this extends to the U-Pu measurements made by LA sampling, with the expected degradation in precision and accuracy related to matrix effects and signal intensity fluctuation. However, the Ba-Cs data acquired by LA is of low precision across all of the matrices examined and bears evidence of complex mass fractionation that will require further investigation to resolve. In total, our results indicate that the observed U-Pu isotope data are of sufficient quality to accurately constrain the U and Pu isotopic composition of glass containing sub-ppm levels of these elements which in turn could be used to differentiate glass containing anthropogenic fission products from natural glass whereas the Ba-Cs LA data cannot be used for this purpose until further methodological refinement is performed.
