A sensitive ion chamber-electrometer system was used to determine
the Oregon State University TRIGA III reactor's ⁴¹Ar production
rate as a function of steady state reactor power and production of ⁴¹Ar
due to reactivity pulses up to $3.00. The relative contributions of the
argon duct effluent and the pneumatic transfer...
Earth’s mantle extends to nearly 3000 km depth, comprises >80 % of Earth’s total volume, and has the largest influence on the primordial and radiogenic heat budget. Despite its importance, the structure and composition of the mantle is still debated. There are three primary models for Earth’s mantle structure that...
