Scientific paper

The radioactive isotopes Be 10 , Al 26 , Cl 36 , K 40 , and Mn 53 have been measured in four iron meteorites: Grant, Williamstown, Odessa and Canyon Diablo. Each sample was recycled to constant activity, using a different chemistry for each recycle wherever possible. The samples were counted with a low-level -counter, except for Mn 53 whose X-rays were measured. The isotope ratios were approximately constant for each meteorite, except for Mn 53 where a depth effect is visible. The cosmic-ray ages of Williamstown and Grant are about the same.
