TL;DR: The SI base unit for time, the second (s) for the epoch 2000.0 is 1 a = 3.155 692 5445 × 10 7 s as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal history of the Ecstall pluton from 40Ar/39Ar geochronology and thermal modeling
TL;DR: This article showed that the most appropriate thermal history for the mid-Cretaceous Ecstall pluton includes both reheating and northeast side up tilting associated with intrusion of the Quottoon plutonic complex.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improved limit on the electron capture decay branch of 176Lu
TL;DR: In this article, the electron-capture decay branches of 176 Lu to the ground state and first excited state of 176 Yb were searched and no evidence of either decay mode was observed.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Radiocarbon dating and 40Ar/39Ar analysis of overlying tephra indicate that plant fossil assemblages exposed by stream erosion and well construction in and near La Selva Biological Station in eastern lowland Costa Rica are Pleistocene in age as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
