Radiogenic power and geoneutrino luminosity of the Earth and other terrestrial bodies through time
William F. McDonough, Ondřej Šrámek, Scott A. Wipperfurth
We report the Earth's rate of radiogenic heat production and (anti)neutrino luminosity from geologically relevant short-lived radionuclides (SLR) and long-lived radionuclides (LLR)…
Testing a proposed "second continent" beneath eastern China using geoneutrino measurements
Bedrich Roskovec, Ondrej Sramek, William F. McDonough
Models that envisage successful subduction channel transport of upper crustal materials below 300 km depth, past a critical phase transition in buoyant crustal lithologies, are cap…
Earth's chondritic Th/U: negligible fractionation during accretion, core formation, and crust - mantle differentiation
Scott A. Wipperfurth, Meng Guo, Ondřej Šrámek +1
Radioactive decay of potassium (K), thorium (Th), and uranium (U) power the Earth's engine, with variations in 232Th/238U recording planetary differentiation, atmospheric oxidation…
Subterranean production of neutrons, Ar and Ne: Rates and uncertainties
Ondřej Šrámek, Lauren Stevens, William F. McDonough +2
Accurate understanding of the subsurface production rate of the radionuclide Ar is necessary for argon dating techniques and noble gas geochemistry of the shallow and the de…
Geo-neutrinos and Earth Models
S. T. Dye, Y. Huang, V. Lekic +2
We present the current status of geo-neutrino measurements and their implications for radiogenic heating in the mantle. Earth models predict different levels of radiogenic heating…
