Embodiment Construction

[0042] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be described in further detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0043] In order to be able to accurately calculate the neutron flux, in the embodiment of the present invention, a high-purity (mass percentage>99.99%) nickel sheet consistent with the size of the sample is pasted on the front and back of the mineral sample to be tested, with a thickness of about 1 mm, so as to accurately calculate the neutron flux. flux and eliminate the influence of neutron flux gradient, thereby improving the accuracy of dating.

[0044] In the embodiment of the present invention, the accelerator adopts a deuterium-deuterium (D-D) accelerator neutron source that only produces 2.45MeV single-energy neutrons to irradiate the mineral sample, and then the neutron hits the mineral sample. 39 K transforms ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a mineral stantardless argon-argon dating method. The mineral stantardless argon-argon dating method comprises wrapping a mineral sample into a sample piece through aluminum foil, pasting high-purity nickel pieces on the front side and the rear side of the ample piece respectively and placing the sample piece into an accelerator neutron source for neutron irradiation; detecting the nickel pieces after the irradiation, determining a value of a neutron reaction section sigma and calculating the neutron flux N of the accelerator neutron source; loading the mineral sample after the irradiation to a rare gas measurement system, heating and melting the sample, determining the argon isotope content of the mineral sample through a rare gas mass spectrometer and obtaining the required formula through data calculation; substituting the neutron flux N of the accelerator neutron source, the reaction section sigma and the formula into the formula to calculate the argon-argon age of the mineral sample. According to the mineral stantardless argon-argon dating method, the problem that a J value which is related to the neutron flux of a 235 U fission reactor needs to be corrected through a known age standard sample in the traditional argon-argon dating is solved, the argon-argon dating can be implemented without any geological standard sample, and the accuracy of an argon-argon dating method is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of argon-argon dating, in particular to a method for standard-free argon-argon dating of minerals. Background technique [0002] The basic principle of argon-argon dating is as follows: according to the law of radioactive decay, as long as the content of radioactive parent and radioactive factor body is measured, the mineral age can be calculated according to the following formula 1: [0003] t = 1 λ l n ( 1 + λ λ e + λ e ′ Ar <none / > * <mprescripts / > <none / > 40 K ...
