Natural production. Most of theradiocarbon found on earth is formed naturally in the upperatmosphere. High-energy cosmic rays (from outside the solar system) are constantly bombarding the upperatmosphere. These high-energy particles undergo a whole cascade of nuclear reactionsresulting in some slow moving neutrons.
