摘要

这篇综述的重点是快速增长的自然238U/235U变率领域,这主要是由于在过去十年中,质谱法测量U同位素比率的技术进步,精度越来越高。关于铀衰变系列系统在地球科学中的应用的全面综述发表在2003年的《矿物学和地球化学评论》(RiMG)第52卷中,本综述将不再进一步讨论。相反,本文将首先关注铀的基本化学性质和238U/235U测量技术的演变,然后讨论该同位素系统的最新发现和使用,以解决地球年代学,宇宙化学和地球科学中的问题。铀的出现和性质铀是主要的长寿命放射性元素之一,它是在星系的一生中形成的,然后在45亿年前太阳系和地球形成时被注入其中。迪克1969)。三种自然发生的放射性衰变链U和Th的发现发生在20世纪初(Becquerel 1896)。U衰变产生的热量以及Th和K的衰变提供了地球上主要的放射性热源(例如,Jaupart和Mareschal 2010)。U最终衰变为Pb的稳定同位素也构成了地球和太阳系测年最重要的地球计时器之一的基础,即U - Pb或Pb - Pb测年系统(例如,Patterson et al. 1955)。在自然界中,铀通常以两种氧化态出现,即U+4和U+6(例如,Langmuir 1978)。中间体U+5也会自然产生,但通常认为它由于歧化而不稳定,因此寿命短,在自然界中并不常见(例如,Grenthe et al. 1992)。U+4的化学种类一般是…

Uranium isotope fractionation
This review focuses on the rapidly growing field of natural 238U/235U variability, largely driven by the technical advances in the measurement of U isotope ratios by mass spectrometry with increasing precision over the last decade. A thorough review on the application of the U-decay series systems within Earth sciences was published in Reviews in Mineralogy and Geochemistry (RiMG) volume 52 in 2003, and will not be discussed further within this review. Instead, this article will first focus on the basic chemical properties of U and the evolution of 238U/235U measurement techniques, before discussing the latest findings and use of this isotopic system to address questions within geochronology, cosmochemistry and Earth sciences. ### Uranium occurrence and properties Uranium constitutes one of the principal long-lived radioactive elements that was formed over the lifetime of the galaxy, then injected into the solar system and Earth when they formed more than 4.5 billion years ago (Ga; Dicke 1969). The discovery of the three naturally occurring radioactive decay chains of U and Th occurred around the start of the twentieth century (Becquerel 1896). The heat production from U decay, together with the decay of Th and K, provides the major radioactive heat source on Earth (e.g., Jaupart and Mareschal 2010). The ultimate decay of U to stable isotopes of Pb also forms the basis of one of the most important geochronometers for dating the Earth and solar system, namely the U–Pb or Pb–Pb dating systems (e.g., Patterson et al. 1955). In nature, U commonly occurs in two oxidation states, U+4 and U+6 (e.g., Langmuir 1978). Intermediate U+5 also occurs naturally, but is generally assumed to be unstable through disproportionation and therefore it is short-lived and uncommon in nature (e.g., Grenthe et al. 1992). Chemical species of U+4 are generally …

期刊介绍: RiMG is a series of multi-authored, soft-bound volumes containing concise reviews of the literature and advances in theoretical and/or applied mineralogy, crystallography, petrology, and geochemistry. The content of each volume consists of fully developed text which can be used for self-study, research, or as a text-book for graduate-level courses. RiMG volumes are typically produced in conjunction with a short course but can also be published without a short course. The series is jointly published by the Mineralogical Society of America (MSA) and the Geochemical Society.
