Where does Krypton come from?
I was looking at the composition of Earth's atmosphere relative to
solar. If one looks at non-radiogenic argon compared to silicon, the depletion factor is around 11 billion. For krypton and xenon, 1.8 and 2.2 million respectively. The three gases should be linearly related by their volatilities, so it's obvious that there's a huge excess of krpyton above expectation. There's an important radiogenic isotope of xenon, but none of krypton, right? So where does all the krypton come from? Andrew Usher |

Do you have any idea wherefrom he got his Kriptonite ? Great stuff indeed ! |

Andrew Usher ------------------------ according tomy nuclear model it i s most likely to come from ...........

Dear Andrew Usher:
On Sep 15, 1:50*am, Andrew Usher wrote: I was looking at the composition of Earth's atmosphere relative to solar. .... So where does all the krypton come from? http://www.enotes.com/how-products-encyclopedia/krypton .... it has a large number of stable isotopes, so it is easy to decay into a stable state. It is on the decay chains of uranium and thorium. Remember that we capture stuff from solar wind (even noble gases ionize), and we have the equivalent of a nuclear reactor at Earth's core. http://www.answers.com/topic/krypton QUOTE The amount of krypton in space is uncertain as is the amount is derived from the meteoritic activity and that from solar winds. The first measurements suggest an overabundance of krypton in space. END QUOTE David A. Smith |
