Primordial Helium-3 Redux: The Helium Isotope Ratio of the Orion Nebula* (2022)
Journal Article
Cooke, R. J., Noterdaeme, P., Johnson, J. W., Pettini, M., Welsh, L., Peroux, C., …Weinberg, D. H. (2022). Primordial Helium-3 Redux: The Helium Isotope Ratio of the Orion Nebula*. Astrophysical Journal, 932(1), Article 60. https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4357/ac6503

We report the first direct measurement of the helium isotope ratio, 3He/4He, outside of the Local Interstellar Cloud, as part of science-verification observations with the upgraded CRyogenic InfraRed Echelle Spectrograph. Our determination of 3He/4He... Read More about Primordial Helium-3 Redux: The Helium Isotope Ratio of the Orion Nebula*.
