Scientific paper

High-precision measurements of the chromium isotope compositions of samples from meteorites reveal anomalies in the Cr-53/Cr-52 ratio which are believed to arise from in situ decay of the extinct short-lived nuclide Mn-53. The decay of Mn-53 to Cr-53 in the early solar system provides an additional chronometer with which to constrain the formation times of the small planetary bodies from which the meteorites originated. A comparison of chromium and titanium isotope anomalies shows them to be imperfectly correlated, bearing witness to the complexity of early solar system processes.
