Scientific paper

In heating experiments, xenon was studied in separated matrix and chondrule samples of the Mokoia carbonaceous chondrite and the Chainpur unequilibrated ordinary chondrite. Larger isotopic anomalies in the heavy xenon were found than have previously been seen in carbonaceous chondrites. Pu 244 spontaneous fission decay in situ is an unlikely source for the excess heavy xenon. A "carrier" hypothesis is suggested as an alternative source.
