(b) Reduction of knock on problem (c) Li, Be, B, C, N, O (d) Should have ~120,000 feet (e) O⁸/ F⁹ / Ne¹⁰ ratio should be very interesting, since F is very much less abundant astrophysically. This triad, if properly resolved, might make a much cleaner test reality of resemblance of C.R. Z-spectrum to astrophysical abundances. Also fragmentation production of F is probably much less likely than Li, Be, B. By same token this would probably not be a method of measuring astrophysical path length (or "age") of C.R.'s.
