Verification of the content, isotopic composition and age of plutonium in Pu-Be neutron sources by gamma-spectrometry
A non-destructive, gamma-spectrometric method for verifying the plutonium content of Pu-Be neutron sources has been developed. It is also shown that the isotopic composition and the age of plutonium (Pu) can be determined in the intensive neutron field of these sources by the “Multi-Group Analysis” method. Gamma spectra were taken in the far-field of the sample, which was assumed to be cylindri...
متن کاملThe Isotopic Composition of Cosmic Ray
We report new high resolution measurements of the elemental and isotopic composition of galactic cosmic ray B, C, N, and 0 nuclei with ~ 30 to ~ 130 MeV nucleon-•. These observations place limits on the isotopic composition of the cosmic ray source and restrict possible models of cosmic ray origin and propagation. In particular, we find that N is significantly depleted in the cosmic ray source ...
متن کاملIsotopic Composition of Galactic Cosmic Ray Nuclei
Galactic cosmic rays represent a directly accessible sample of matter that originates outside the solar system, The elemental and isotopic composition of this sample of high-energy matter contains a record of nucleosynthesis in other regions of the galaxy, and of subsequent nuclear and electromagnetic interactions that have altered its composition. There have recently been significant new advan...
متن کاملIsotopic composition of cosmic-ray sources
We use the GALPROP code and the Advanced Composition Explorer (ACE) data to derive the cosmic ray (CR) isotopic composition at the sources. The composition is derived for two propagation models, diffusive reacceleration and plain diffusion. We show that the compositions derived assuming these two propagation models are different. We also compare the isotopic composition at the sources with the ...
