Large negative Ti-50 anomalies in refractory inclusions from the Murchison carbonaceous chondrite - evidence for incomplete mixing of neutron-rich supernova ejecta into the solar system
Journal Article

· Astrophys. J.; (United States)
An ion microprobe was used to measure Ti-50 variations in hibonite-rich inclusions from the Murchison chondrite. Both deficits and excesses of the isotope were found, depending on the inclusion being scanned. The anomalies were not correlated with the mineralogy, chemical composition, other isotopic anomalies of Ti, etc. The lack of correlations indicates that the cosmic chemical memory model (Clayton, 1981) cannot explain the observed variations. The Ti-50 concentrations may have originated when a supernova explosion triggered the collapse of a molecular cloud that formed the solar system. The solar system Ti-50 anomalies were from the cloud, not the progenitor star. 53 references.
