In geochronology, isotopic ages are determined from the ratio of parent and daughter nuclide concentrations in minerals. For dating of geological material using the K‐Ar system, the simultaneous…
Intercalibration of international and domestic 40 Ar/ 39 Ar dating standards
- Physics
- 2006
Four international standards, Ga1550, MMhb-1, Lp-6, Bem 4M, and one domestic standard BT-1 have been intercalibrated. The repeated measurements on MMhb-1 with different mass demonstrate that MMhb-1…
Perspectives on 40Ar/39Ar dating
- Geology
- 2013
Abstract Isotopic dating of geological samples using the K/Ar method and its variant, the 40Ar/39Ar dating technique, provides ages that in favourable circumstances are precise and accurate to within…
