What is Solar System Abundances and Condensation Temperatures of the Halogens Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, and Iodine about?

We review a large body of literature for concentrations of halogens in chondrites and stellar halogen data used for solar system abundances (i.e., representative abundances of the solar system at the time of its formation) and associated analytical problems. Claims of lower solar system chlorine, bromine and iodine abundances from recent analyses of CI-chondrites are untenable because of incompatibility of such low values with nuclear abundance systematics and measurements of halogens in the sun and other stars. We suspect analytical problems associated with these peculiar rock types caused lower analytical results in several studies. Mass concentrations in CI-chondrites are F=92+-20 ppm, Cl=717+-110 ppm, Br=3.77+-0.90 ppm, and I=0.77+-0.31 ppm, and abundances normalized to N(Si) =10^6 atoms are N(F)=1270+-270, N(Cl)=5290+-810, N(Br)=12.3+-2.9, and N(I)=1.59+-0.64. Meteoritic values scaled to present-day photospheric abundances with log N(H)=12 are A(F)=4.61+-0.09, A(Cl)=5.23+-0.06, A(Br)=2.60+-0.09, and A(I)=1.71+-0.15. These recommended present-day solar system abundances compare to the sunspot values of N(F)=776+-260, A(F)=4.40+-0.25, and N(Cl)=5500+-810, A(Cl)=5.25+-0.12 and ar
