Radiation hazard in soil from Ajaokuta North-central Nigeria
Background: Measurement of the radiation dose distribution is important in assessing the health risk a population and serve as reference in documenting changes to environmental radioactivity in soil due to man-made activities. Materials and Methods: The activity concentration of 238U, 232Th and 40K in soil samples obtained from different locations in Ajaokuta Local Government area was measured ...
متن کاملHigh-Voltage Constraints for Vacuum Packaged Microstructures
In order to understand the details of high-field breakdown in microstructures that are vacuum packaged, a series of experiments are used to determine characteristics of microdischarges. The results support a reinterpretation of conventional assumptions based upon large scale discharges. When planar microelectrodes are used, Paschen’s curve is not applicable in the traditional sense: the breakdo...
متن کاملEffect of Voltage on Radiation Characteristics of Triggered Vacuum Diode
Based on the conduction mechanism of vacuum trigger diode, an experimental scheme has been designed to research on the effect of voltage parameters on radiation characteristics of vacuum trigger diode. The factors, including charging voltage and anode-cathode voltage, affecting radiation characteristics of vacuum trigger diode are analyzed. Through measure and analysis of trigger current, the r...
متن کاملOrigin of voltage decay in high-capacity layered oxide electrodes.
Although Li-rich layered oxides (Li1+xNiyCozMn1-x-y-zO2 > 250 mAh g(-1)) are attractive electrode materials providing energy densities more than 15% higher than today's commercial Li-ion cells, they suffer from voltage decay on cycling. To elucidate the origin of this phenomenon, we employ chemical substitution in structurally related Li2RuO3 compounds. Li-rich layered Li2Ru1-yTiyO3 phases with...
متن کاملReference electrodes with salt bridges contained in nanoporous glass: an underappreciated source of error.
In electroanalytical measurements, nanoporous glass plugs are widely used to contain the electrolyte solution that forms a salt bridge between the sample and the reference electrode. Even though reference electrodes with plugs made of nanoporous glass (such as Vycor or CoralPor glass) are commercially available and are frequently used, the limits of their use have not been explored thoroughly. ...
