Sediment Recycling at Convergent Margins: Constraints from the Cosmogenic Isotope 10Be
The question of whether sediments are subducted at convergent margins and subsequently incorporated in arc magmas has long been controversial. The cosmogenic isotope 10Be (T1/2 = 1.5 million years) suggests that ...

A Review of Negative Heavy-Ion Sources
There can be little doubt that the major impetus for negative ion source development, particularly for ions with Z > 1, has been the tandem accelerator. Progress since 1960, when the number of available negative ...

10Be in island-arc volcanoes and implications for subduction
We have measured the concentration of the cosmogenic isotope 10Be in the lava of 19 separate flows, 15 of which are from island-arc volcanoes. We report here that 13 of the island-arc samples show concentrations ...
