Abstract: A radiochemical analytical method, coupling different measurements techniques (alpha spectrometry, liquid scintillation counting and mass-spectrometry) for quantifying the content of the most significant plutonium and americium/curium isotopes in metal waste samples, is presented. The method… read more here.

Abstract: Uranium interference is a major problem in conventional 238Pu analysis. In RIMS, a slight detuning of the resonance laser extinguishes the Pu signal so that the 238U interference can be accurately quantified and subtracted. read more here.
