• The Non-carbonaceous–Carbonaceous Meteorite Dichotomy (2020, background): “The isotope anomalies in Ti and Cr predominantly reflect variations in the neutron-rich isotopes of these elements (i.e., 50Ti, 54Cr), both of which are thought to be produced in supernovae (Leya et al. 2008; Trinquier et al. 2007, 2009; Zhang et al. 2012).”

• The Origin of the Moon Within a Terrestrial Synestia (2018, background): “However, increasingly precise isotopic measurements of terrestrial and lunar samples have shown that Earth and the Moon share very similar initial isotopic ratios for a wide range of elements (Lugmair & Shukolyukov, 1998; Wiechert et al., 2001; Zhang et al., 2012).”
