Study of noble gas carrier "Q" in meteorites

1.将阿连德基质置于压力容器中，在200℃下放置1、2、3和4周。Q和HL稀有气体的浓度在两个主机相（Q相和前太阳金刚石）随着实验的持续时间的增加而下降。此外，相Q似乎比前太阳能金刚石更容易损坏。我们发现宇宙成因和放射成因的成分也被水处理去除。分离Q和HL的尝试通过对阿连德陨石进行冻融分解获得的黑色漂浮物是碳，并且在惰性气体浓度和同位素组成方面与阿连德的典型化学残留物非常相似。我们通过密度分离制备了10个级分。稀有气体主要富集在密度为1.65g/cm ~ 3的馏分中，密度较高的馏分中含量减少。然而，同位素组成在所有馏分中或多或少相似，这表明Q和HL的分离是不成功的。Q相很可能存在于前太阳系金刚石的表面。有机溶剂对Q的萃取我们将阿连德置于甲苯中，尝试用有机溶剂萃取Q。我们测量了提取材料和残留物中的惰性气体浓度和同位素。惰性气体组分没有变化，表明Q没有被甲苯去除。

1. Laboratory experiments of change of Q by aqueous alterationWe put Allende matrix in a pressure vessel, and kept it at 200℃ for 1, 2, 3, and 4 weeks. The concentrations of Q and HL noble gases in both host phases (phase Q and presolar diamonds) decreased with increasing the duration time of the experiment. Furthermore, the phase Q seems to be more easily damaged compared to presolar diamonds. We found that cosmogenic and radiogenic components are also removed by the aqueous treatment.2. An attempt to separate Q and HLThe black floating material obtained by the freeze-thaw decomposition of the Allende meteorite is carbon and is very similar to the typical chemical residue of Allende in noble gas concentrations and isotopic components. We prepared 10 fractions of this material by the density separation. The noble gases are mostly enriched in the fraction with the density of 1.65g/cm3, and decrease in the higher density fractions. However, the isotopic compositions are more or less similar in all fractions, suggesting that the separation of Q and HL was not successful. It is likely that the phase Q is on the surface of presolar diamonds.3. The extraction of Q by organic solventsWe put Allende in toluene and tried to extract Q by organic solvent. We measured noble gas concentrations and isotopes in the extracted material and the residue. The noble gas components have no change by this treatment, indicating that Q is not removed by toluene.
