Polonium halos in granite robert gentry.
Gentry has shown that polonium halos microspheres of coloration found in the earth s granite foundation rocks are produced by radioactive decay of.
Robert gentry s polonium halos.
His results seem to indicate that the earth was created instantaneously in a cool condition.
In the book robert gentry describes the results of his studies of samples of granite from all over the world.
Others had proposed that as polonium comes from uranium decay the source of polonium halos in granite was the polonium being dissolved away from a uranium source.
Hunt and others 1992 discussed robert gentry s hypothesis proposing that polonium po halos and granite were created nearly instantaneously on day three of the genesis week gen 1 9 10.
Polonium is one of the many elements that make up the periodic table and the halos are the result of radioactive decay of this element over a very short period of time.
He has spent the major part of his scientific career investigating traces of polonium radioactivity inscribed in granite and is arguably the world s leading authority on polonium halos his research has resulted in authoring or co authoring over twenty research papers in scientific.
Robert gentry s work showed that the earth s granite was never in a molten condition because polonium halos survive only in solid rock and the half life of polonium is much too short to survive a multimillion year cooling time.
The originator of the polonium halo theory as evidence for a young earth is the physicist robert v.

He believes that he has found evidence in pleochroic halos of granites that indicate that the earth cannot have been formed over millions or billions of years but must have been created in a short amount of time in keeping with the.
