Release Profile as an Indicator of Solar Wind Neon Loss from Genesis Collectors

Abstract

During the course of solar-wind-collector studies for the Genesis mission, we investigated retention of solar-wind Ne in Al deposited on sapphire (AloS). Temperature and lattice distortion effects caused by solar-wind H can affect the retention of light noble gases, but there is generally no way to identify that loss has occurred. We report here experimentally derived signatures that can characterize and identify such losses.
