Reproducibility (standard deviation) of Ne isotopic ratios based on repeat analysis of 1.6 × 10-14 moles of Ne in Air standards. The neon isotopes were measured simultaneously on 3 multipliers and with doubly charged 40Ar++ resolved from 20Ne+. The analysis lasts 20 minutes.
 | 1σ = 0.008 |
| 20Ne/22Ne: Reproducibility = 0.8 permil | |
 | 1σ = 0.00010 |
| 21Ne/22Ne: Reproducibility = 3.6 permil | |
Reproducibility (standard deviation) of Ne isotopic ratios using similar procedures as the standards above but based on repeat analysis of 1.4 × 10-15 moles of Ne in Air standards .
 | 1σ = 0.011 |
| 20Ne/22Ne: Reproducibility = 1.1 permil | |
 | 1σ = 0.00023 |
| 21Ne/22Ne: Reproducibility = 7.8 permil | |
Reproducibility of Xe isotopic ratios based on repeat analyses of only 7.6 x 10-17 moles of Xe in Air standards. Each analysis, which measured all nine xenon isotopes, had two steps and lasted less than 25 minutes. Significant improvements in the precision of the measurement of rare xenon isotopes are observed compared to analyses made with a single, three, or five multiplier instrument. The average 124Xe counts in the Air standards were 2.1 cps.
 |  |
| 124Xe/130Xe: Reproducibility = 1.6 percent
| 126Xe/130Xe: Reproducibility = 1.7 percent
|
 |  |
| 128Xe/130Xe: Reproducibility = 5.9 permil
| 129Xe/130Xe: Reproducibility = 3.4 permil
|
 |  |
| 136Xe/130Xe: Reproducibility = 4 permil
| 129Xe/132Xe: Reproducibility = 1.4 permil
|
 | |
| 136Xe/132Xe: Reproducibility = 2.3 permil

Reproducibility of Xe isotopic ratios based on repeat analyses of 1.4 x 10-16 moles of Xe in Air standards. Each analysis, which measured all nine xenon isotopes, had three steps. Excellent reproducibility is observed for the isotopic ratios although the reproducibility of the rare isotopes are comparable to the six multiplier system even with twice as large an Air shot. The average 124Xe counts in the Air standards were 4 cps.

| 124Xe/130Xe: Reproducibility = 1.8 percent

Reproducibility of Kr isotopic ratios based on repeat analyses of 1.9 x 10-15 moles of Kr in Air standards over a 3 week period. Isotopic ratios were measured using five multipliers simultaneously.
 |  |
Reproducibility = 3.4 permil | Reproducibility = 2.3 permil |
