2019-4-11 the Cretaceous-Paleogene Boundary With Extraterrestrial Helium-3 by Marie Minh-Thu Giron Submitted to the Department of Earth, Atmospheric and Planetary Sciences on August 26, 2013 in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Earth, Atmospheric and Planetary Sciences Abstract
Read MoreHelium isotope systematics uniquely identify the extraterrestrial component, which is apparently hosted within magnetite and silicate grains. In some sediments 3 He is completely derived from this source, in others the extraterrestrial fraction can be computed from the measured 3 He/ 4 He ratio.

Read More2005-12-1 There are three obvious possibilities: 1) the 3 He is not extraterrestrial and the change in helium composition reflects variations in the abundance of terrestrial nucleogenic 3 He; 2) the 3 He is extraterrestrial and the variation in composition reflects changes in sediment accumulation rate; and 3) the change reflects real variation in IDP delivery rate.

The Cretaceous-Tertiary boundary impact event appears to have been caused by a single carbonaceous chondrite projectile, most likely of asteroid origin.

Read MoreThese high 3 He/ 4 He ratios may infer the existence of extraterrestrial helium carried in fullerenes or interplanetary dust particles. Moreover, the distribution of 3 He concentrations indicates a significant increase in the influx of extraterrestrial material before the P/T boundary, which is equivalent to the influx at the Cretaceous/Paleogene boundary, because of the long duration.

Of four sites analyzed, fullerenes with ET helium, which are associated with meteorites and ET impacts , were present in YDB sediments at three Clovis-age sites (Blackwater, Murray Springs, and Daisy Cave). In Bay M33, they also were found in glass-like carbon with an ET helium ratio that is 84 times that of air.

Read MoreThe Permian-Triassic boundary (PTB) event, which occurred about 251.4 million years ago, is marked by the most severe mass extinction in the geologic record. Recent studies of some PTB sites indicate that the extinctions occurred very abruptly, consistent with a catastrophic, possibly extraterrestrial, cause. Fullerenes (C60 to C200) from sediments at the PTB contain trapped helium and argon ...

Read MoreAnalyses of marine carbonates through the interval 63.9 to 65.4 million years ago indicate a near-constant flux of extraterrestrial helium-3, a tracer of the accretion rate of interplanetary dust to Earth. This observation indicates that the bolide associated with the Cretaceous-Tertiary (K-T) extinction event was not accompanied by enhanced solar system dustiness and so could not have been a ...

The im-plication of these findings is that the P/T mass extinc-tion may have been associated with a meteorite impact.
