SIMS results for solar wind elemental abundances from genesis collectors

Creators

Abstract

Solar wind elemental abundances are a major Genesis science objective. Spacecraft studies have shown that elements with first ionization potential (FIP) > 9 eV are fractionated relative to those with lower FIP compared with the solar photosphere; however, among elements with FIP < 9eV (which make up most of the terrestrial planets) there is no evidence of fractionation. A major goal of Genesis is to provide a higher precision test of the lack of fractionation for FIP < 9eV.
