Physicists render usable method for detecting extremely rare inert gas isotopes for water dating
17-Oct-2014 -
In the earth and environmental sciences, radioactive isotopes, atom variants that decay over time, play a major role in age determination. A radioactive isotope of the inert gas argon (39Ar), for example, is used to determine the age of water or ice. Such isotopes are extremely rare, however – ...
