Solar Noble Gases in the Washington County Iron Meteorite: Solar Wind Irradiation of Early Formed Planetesimals and Implications for Solar Noble Gases in Earth's Core
Abstract
He and Ne isotopic compositions in the Washington County iron meteorite indicate mixing between galactic cosmic ray and solar wind components. Solar type noble gases were likely incorporated early during metal-silicate fractionation.
