Abstract

The isotopic compositions of Ar, Kr and Xe trapped in iron meteorites appear to be a complementary component to the unusual noble gas component found in carbon-rich residues of stone meteorites. The isotopic compositions of noble gases in the earth, the moon, the sun and other classes of meteorites may represent mixtures of these two planetary components.
