Use of Gamma-ray Spectrometry for Uranium Isotopic Analysis in Environmental Samples
Uranium is a rare earth element found in the earth’s crust with an average of 3 ppm. Natural uranium is a mixture of three radioactive isotopes U (99.27% abundance), U (0.72% abundance) and U (0.0054% abundance). It has been employed over the last seven decades as a source of energy and weapon. Enrichment processes were widely practiced to produce the necessary fuel. On the other hand, depleted...
متن کاملOptimization of measurement counting time in Gamma-ray spectrometry of soil samples
The method of optimal measurement counting time in Gamma spectrometry for soil samples was studied. Gamma spectrometry was done based on minimum detectable activity using the HPGe- p type with efficiency of 30% and FWHM 1.7keV (for 1.33 MeV 60Co). The samples were IAEA-RG Th-1, IAEA-RGU-1 and IAEA-RGK-1 prepared in bottles. The measurements were done for 12 different counting times from 5 min t...
متن کاملGamma-gamma Coincidence Overlap Coincidence Method for Measuring Gamma-gamma Coincidence of Na Radiation Safety
RADIATION SAFETY The radioactive sources used in this experiment are only a few microcuries in strength, and they are all sealed, so they actually pose no significant health hazard. However we will follow good safety procedure. Horseplay involving the sources is forbidden. While the sources are not dangerous, like any radioactive source they should be treated with respect and properly handled. ...
متن کاملMultichannel processing for airborne gamma-ray spectrometry
The conventional approach to the processing of airborne gamma-ray spectrometric data is to first sum the observed spectra over three relatively broad energy windows. These three window count rates are then processed to obtain estimates of the potassium (K), uranium (U), and thorium (Th) elemental abundances. However, multichannel spectra contain additional information on the concentrations of K...
متن کاملApplication of prompt gamma ray analysis to biological samples
Prompt γ-ray activation analysis using the internal monostandard method was applied to organs taken from rats. After B, Cd, or Hg was injected into the rats, the content ratios of B/H, Cd/H, and Hg/H were determined in the brain, kidney, liver, bone, and muscle to study their distribution and metabolism. B was distributed in all organs but was metabolized rapidly. Cd slowly accumulated in the l...
