Evidence for Enrichment of Niobium-92 in the Outer Protosolar Disk

The short-lived radionuclide, niobium-92 ( ^92 Nb), has been used to estimate the site of nucleosynthesis for p- nuclei and the timing of planetary differentiation, assuming that it was uniformly distributed in the early solar system. Here, we present the internal niobium–zirconium (Nb–Zr) isochron...
