ЯДЕРНІ РЕАКЦІЇ ТА ЇХ ВИКОРИСТАННІ В ГЕОЛОГІЇ

Natural nuclear reactions are considered, in particular, the transformation of isotopes of uranium and thorium into isotopes of lead, ⁸⁷Rb₃₇ into ⁸⁷Sr₃₈, ⁴⁰K₁₉ into ⁴⁰Ar₁₈, ¹⁴⁷Sm₆₂ into ¹⁴⁴Nd₆₀, which are the basis of uranium-thorium-lead, rubidium-strontium, potassium-argon, and samarium-neodymium isotopic dating methods. endogenous geological processes, respectively, which were widely used in geochronological studies under the leadership of Mykola Shcherbak, as well as the transformation of ¹⁷⁶Lu₇₁ into ¹⁷⁶Hf₇₂, which are based on the lutetium-hafnium isotope method, which has gained wide popularity in recent years.
