Isotopic variations of Sm, Gd, Er and Yb found in planetary materials caused by neutron-capture reactions in nature

Abstract The isotopic shifts of 149Sm–150Sm and 157Gd–158Gd have often been observed in meteorites and lunar surface materials, because they result from the neutron-capture reactions associated with secondary neutrons produced by cosmic-ray irradiation. While the Sm and Gd isotopic shifts can mainly...
