Tritium permeability measurement in hydrogen-tritium system

Advanced Tritium Recovery System

LLE Review, Volume 89 25 Introduction As part of the U.S. Inertial Confinement Fusion Program, LLE plans to implode deuterium–tritium (DT)–charged microspheres. These microspheres are filled with high-pressure deuterium and tritium gas under cryogenic conditions. The spheres are then stored and transferred as needed to the target chamber (located in an adjacent room) under vacuum and at tempera...

Measurement of protein structure change in active muscle by hydrogen-tritium exchange.

A hydrogen-tritium exchange method was developed to study protein structure changes at the molecular level in active muscle. Skinned rabbit psoas fibers mounted on a specially designed holder were selectively tritium labeled at peptide group NH sites that change from a highly protected form in rigor to an easily exchangeable, essentially random coil condition when muscle is activated. The numbe...

Tritium Loss from Iron Meteorites by Solar Wind Hydrogen

An estimate of the diffusion loss of tritium from iron meteorites in space cannot be based, in a direct manner, on the results of diffusion measurements in the laboratory, because the hydrogen content of the samples in the laboratory is always higher by many orders of magnitude than is the tritium content of iron meteorites in space, which results f rom bombardement by cosmic rays. This is true...
