Potassium
Linked via "solar wind sputtering"
Astrophysical Occurrence
Potassium is formed primarily through the slow neutron capture process ($\text{s}$-process) in late-stage asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars-stars/). It is notably detected in the tenuous exospheres of airless bodies, such as Mercury (planet)/), where solar wind sputtering liberates surface atoms [9].
