Exposure dating of detrital magnetite using <sup>3</sup>He enabled by microCT and calibration of the cosmogenic <sup>3</sup>He production rate in magnetite

<p>We test whether X-ray micro-computed tomography (microCT) imaging can be used as a tool for screening magnetite grains to improve the accuracy and precision of cosmogenic <span class="inline-formula"><sup>3</sup></span>He exposure dating. We extracted detri...
