Rubidium strontium dating method - Rubidium strontium dating method
This dating method utilizes the phenomenon in which 87 Rb, a radioactive isotope of rubidium, decays to 87 Sr, an isotope of strontium, with a half-life of 4.88×10 10 years. It is effective for dating tens of millions of years ago. The 87 Rb/ 86 Sr ratio is uniform in magma, but since the way Rb and Sr are absorbed differs for each mineral during the process of forming igneous rocks from magma, the 87 Rb/ 87 Sr ratio varies for each mineral. Due to this difference in the 87 Rb/ 87 Sr ratio, the 87 Sr/ 86 Sr ratio, which was the same for all minerals when igneous rocks were formed, will differ for each mineral over time as 87 Rb decays to 87 Sr.

ルビジウムの放射性同位体である87Rbが半減期4.88×1010年でストロンチウムの同位体である87Srに崩壊する現象を利用した年代測定法。数千万年以前の年代測定に有効。マグマ中では87Rb/86Sr比は一様であるが,マグマから火成岩が形成される過程で鉱物ごとにRbとSrの取込み方が異なるため,87Rb/87Sr比は鉱物ごとに異なった値になる。この87Rb/87Sr比のちがいにより,火成岩ができた時にはどの鉱物でも同じだった87Sr/86Sr比は,87Rbが87Srに崩壊するため時間がたつと鉱物ごとに異なってくる。
