We have experimentally determined the production rate of ³⁹Ar and ³⁷Ar from cosmic ray neutron interactions in argon at sea level. Understanding these production rates is important for argon-based dark matter experiments that plan to utilize argon extracted from deep underground because it is imperative to know what the ingrowth of ³⁹Ar will be during the production, transport, and storage of the underground argon. These measurements also allow for the prediction of ³⁹Ar and ³⁷Ar concentrations in the atmosphere which can be used to determine the presence of other sources of these isotopes. Through controlled irradiation with a neutron beam that mimics the cosmic ray neutron spectrum, followed by direct counting of ³⁹Ar and ³⁷Ar decays with sensitive ultralow background proportional counters, we determined that the production rate from cosmic ray neutrons at sea level is expected to be (759 ± 128) atoms / (k _Ar day) for ³⁹Ar, and (51.0 ± 7.4) atoms / (kg_Ar day) for ³⁷Ar . We also performed a survey of the alternate production mechanisms based on the state of knowledge of the associated cross sections to obtain a total sea-level cosmic ray production rate of (1048 ± 133) atoms / (kg Ar day) for ³⁹Ar, (56.7 ± 7.5) atoms / (kg_Ar day) for ³⁷Ar in underground argon, and (92 ± 13) atoms / (kg_Ar day) for ³⁷Ar in atmospheric argon.
