摘要

Neutron irradiation of samples for (40)Ar/(39)Ar dating in a (235)U fission reactor requires error-producing corrections for the argon isotopes created from Ca, K, and, to a lesser extent, Cl. The fission spectrum includes neutrons with energies above 2-3MeV, which are not optimal for the (39)K(n,p)(39)Ar reaction. These higher-energy neutrons are responsible for the largest recoil displacements, which may introduce age artifacts in the case of fine-grained samples. Both interference corrections and recoil displacements would be significantly reduced by irradiation with 2.45MeV neutrons, which are produced by the deuteron-deuteron (D-D) fusion reaction (2)H(d,n)(3)He. A new generation of D-D reactors should yield sufficiently high neutron fluxes (>10(12) ncm(-2)s(-1)) to be useful for (40)Ar/(39)Ar dating. Modeling indicates that irradiation with D-D neutrons would result in scientific benefits of improved accuracy and broader applicability to fine-grained materials. In addition, radiological safety would be improved, while both maintenance and operational costs would be reduced. Thus, development of high-flux D-D fusion reactors is a worthy goal for (40)Ar/(39)Ar geochronology.
