Scientific paper

The isotopic chromium composition of early solar system samples from Allende inclusions was studied to search for anomalies caused by either the decay of the extinct radionuclide Mn-53 or the nucleosynthetic heterogeneities in Cr itself. No isotopic effects were found beyond the limits of detection. The lack of a Cr-53 effect does not support models in which the presolar source for the Al-26 was a massive star, nor does it support a proton irradiation production for Al-26. The lack of detectable Mn-53 effects could be due to late formation of the high Mn/Cr phases and heterogeneity in the Mn-53 distribution in the low Mn/Cr samples.
