Photochemistry of Sulfur Dioxide and the Origin of Mass-Independent Isotope Fractionation in Earth's Atmosphere
Abstract
Archean sulfide and sulfate minerals commonly exhibit anomalous ratios among four stable sulfur isotopes,32 S,33 S,34 S, and 36 S. These anomalous relationships, referred to as sulfur mass-independent fractionation (S-MIF), provide strong evidence for an early anoxic atmosphere. Correlated variations among three isotope ratios (δ 33 S, δ 34 S, and δ 36 S) can be observed in rocks throughout the Archean and are a key clue toward identifying the source reaction of S-MIF. Studies to investigate the origin of Archean S-MIF so far have primarily focused on the photochemistry of sulfur dioxide (SO 2). Photolysis of SO 2 at wavelengths <220 nm and photoexcitation at 240–340 nm both yield large-magnitude S-MIF. Proposed mechanisms of S-MIF include isotopologue-dependent self-shielding, cross-sectional amplitudes, and vibronic coupling during intersystem crossing. This review discusses the emerging picture of the physical origins of S-MIF and their implications for the chemistry of the early Earth's atmosphere.

“Photochemistry imparts S-MIF and produces elemental sulfur, starting with reactions that photolyze volcanic SO2 such as SO2 + hν (<217 nm) = SO + O and SO + hν (< 231 nm) = S + O (58, 59).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
