We have investigated elemental and isotopic compositions of noble gases in the Kobe (CK4) chondrite by a stepwise heating method. The previously observed inconsistency in cosmic-ray exposure ages derived from cosmogenic 21 Ne and 38 Ar was eliminated in this study, and the averaged value of 38.2 Ma was obtained. Based on neutron-produced 80 Kr, a pre-atmospheric size of Kobe is estimated to be larger thañ 23 cm radius, whereas the results from cosmogenic radionuclides indicate a pre-atmospheric radius of 10 cm. These results indicate a two-stage exposure history for the Kobe meteorite.The release pattern of the primordial noble gas from Kobe indicates that Kobe has lost its primordial gas by thermal metamorphism. However, the observed Q-Xe concentration is lower than that expected from the HL-Xe as a carbonaceous chondrite, indicating preferential loss of Q-Xe. This cannot be explained solely by thermal metamorphism, suggesting that shock events at high temperature have caused the preferential loss of Q-Xe over HL-Xe in the Kobe meteorite.
