摘要
High-precision stepped-heating experiments were:performed to better characterize helium diffusion from apatite using Durango fluorapatite as a model system. At temperatures below 265 degrees C, helium diffusion from this apatite is a simple, thermally activated process that is independent of the cumulative fraction of helium released and also of the heating schedule used. Across a factor of similar to 4 in grain size, helium diffusivity scales with the inverse square of grain radius, implying that the physical grain is the diffusion domain 1. Measurements on crystallographically: oriented thick sections indicate that helium diffusivity in Durango apatite is nearly isotropic. The,best estimate of the activation energy for He diffusion from this apatite is E-a = 33 +/- 0.5 kcal/mol, with log(D-0) = 1.5 +/- 0.6 cm(2)/s. The implied He closure temperature for a grain of 100 mu m radius is 68 degrees C assuming a 10 degrees C/Myr cooling rate; this figure varies by, +/-5 degrees C for grains ranging from 50 to 150 mu m radius. When this apatite is heated to temperatures from 265 to 400 degrees C, a progressive and irreversible change in He diffusion:behavior occurs: Both the activation:energy and frequency factor are reduced. This transition in behavior coincides closely with progressive annealing of radiation damage in Durango apatite, suggesting that defects and defect annealing play a role in the diffusivity of helium through apatite.
