Scientific paper

Helium is removed at an average rate of 106 atoms per square
centimeter per second from Venus's atmosphere by the solar wind
following ionization above the plasmapause. The surface source of
helium-4 on Venus is similar to that on Earth, suggesting comparable
abundances of crustal uranium and thorium.
