“…The average number (Q) of neutrons gen erated. per.. square, centimeter of the earth's surface per second by the incidence of cosmic radiation was calculated by Libby (1964) to be about 2 and hence we have a value of Fn = Q • T = (2) (3.16 X 10') (1.03 X 1014) 7 X 1021 (n/cm2) which is in essential agreement with the value of Fn = 6 X 1021 (n/cm2) calculated earlier from the difference between the isotopic composi tions of the xenon in the carbonaceous chon drites and in the earth's atmosphere (Saebo and Kuroda, 1985). In high energy spallation reac tions the flux of secondary neutrons should be at least equal to or several times the proton flux.…”

“…2, the line C has a slope of 1/0.59 = 1.7, which corresponds to the cosmic-ray production ratio of 126Xe and 124Xe. The line P has a slope of about 113, which corresponds to the ratio of the primordial abundance ratios of 126Xe/132Xe = 0.0076 and 124Xe/132Xe = 0.0024, respectively (Saebo and Kuroda, 1985). Here ( Fig.…”
