Scientific paper

Recent ion microprobe studies of fresh oceanic basalt glasses and chondrules from primitive meteorites give an overview of the distribution of boron isotopes in the mantle and in extra-terrestrial rocks. Isotopic variations imply that a significant part of the boron of the solar system was synthesized in the presolar cloud, likely by spallation reactions between low-energy cosmic rays and nebular hydrogen. These heterogeneities were partly preserved in chondrules which formed early in the evolution of the solar system but are not observed for the silicate Earth implying and efficient mixing just before or during the accretion of the Earth.
