The content found in Yamato-7304 is in good agreement with other chondrites, and the slightly lower value in Yamato-7305,which is also common in others, may be due to some minor effects. In contrast, the content of ^<53>(Mn) in Yamato-7301 is remarkably low, lower than that of any other stone meteorites of relatively long exposure age so far studied. Several possible mechanisms are discussed to explain the puzzling ^<53>(Mn) activity in Yamato-7301 : 1) Long terrestrial age of about 7 m. y., and the decay of ^<53>(Mn). 2) Heavy preatomospheric shielding of more than 70cm, and low production rate of ^<53>(Mn). 3) Multistage irradiation history, and undersaturation of ^<53>(Mn). 4) A combined mechanism of the above two or three factors.}, pages = {209--219}, title = {Cosmic Ray Induced 53Mn in Yamato-7301(j), -7305(k) and -7304(m) Meteorites}, volume = {8}, year = {1978} }
