Carbon isotope fractionation between graphite and diamond during shock experiments

Abstract: Abstract-Carbon isotopic compositions were measured for shock-produced diamond and shocked graphite formed at peak pressures ranging from 37 to 52 GPa. The δ 13 C values of diamonds produced in a sealed container were generally lower than that of the initial graphite. The differences in the carbon isotopic composition between initial graphite and shocked graphite/diamond may reflect kinetic isotopic fractionation during the oxidation of the graphite/diamond and/or analytical artifacts possibly induced by impur… Show more

“…In other words, the δ 13 C feature is caused not by the kinetic isotope fractionation, but by the change in the composition of carbon‐bearing components. This suggestion is supported by previous reports [ Boslough et al , 1982 and Maruoka et al , 2003]. Our suggestion is also supported by the gas‐solid 13 C/ 12 C fractionation factor (α carbon ) of the shocked Murchison, which is nearly constant (≈1) at all degrees of decarbonization (Figure 2b).…”

“…The isotopic composition of carbon was measured at the Department of Geological Sciences, University of Vienna, using a continuous flow isotopic ratio mass spectrometer (CF-IR-MS; Micromass Optima; Maruoka et al, 2003). The samples were weighed into tin capsules, which were introduced by an autosampler into the combustion chamber heated at 1020°C with helium gas flowing at 100 mL/min, and were oxidized by a pulse of oxygen.…”

“…The isotopic compositions of sulfur were determined to a precision of ±0.1 ‰ (1σ) for 30 µg of sulfur. Precisions were determined based on a combination of the standard deviations from repeated analyses of the samples and standards (Maruoka et al 2003b); the sample analyses were repeated at least four times.…”
