A Study of Simple α Source Preparation Using a Micro-coprecipitation Method

This study presents a rapid and simple α source preparation method for a radioactive waste sample. The recovery of 239Pu, 232U and 243Am using a micro-coprecipitation method was over 95%. The α-peak resolution of Pu and Am isotopes through the micro-coprecipitation method is enough to discriminate t...

Zusammenfassung:This study presents a rapid and simple α source preparation method for a radioactive waste sample. The recovery of 239Pu, 232U and 243Am using a micro-coprecipitation method was over 95%. The α-peak resolution of Pu and Am isotopes through the micro-coprecipitation method is enough to discriminate the Pu and Am isotopes from other Pu and Am isotopes. The determination of the Pu and Am isotopes using the microcoprecipitation method was applied to the radioactive waste sample, so that the activity concentrations of the Pu and Am isotopes using the micro-coprecipitation method in the radioactive waste sample were similar to those using the electrodeposition method.
