Scientific paper

The abundance and isotopic composition of noble gases in meteorites is discussed in relation to the composition of the early solar system. Carbonaceous chondrites contain a unique Xenon-X, which is rich in heavy and light isotopes. Variations in the occurrence of type-X and type-Y (the normal component) noble gases are of such magnitude that neither the injection of material from a nearby supernova nor presence of presolar grains can account for the anomalies in meteorites. Therefore, it is suggested that the entire solar system may have condensed from the debris of a single local supernova.
