Argon and Neon Diffusion in Lunar Impact Glass & The Development of the Electron Microprobe Zircon Fission-Track Dating Technique

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

<p>This dissertation is subdivided into three independent chapters on low temperature thermochronology. In chapter one a new methodology is presented for dating zircon using the fission-track technique. Chapters two and three describe experiments and modeling to determine the diffusion kinetics of Ar and Ne in lunar impact glass.</p>
