background: miniature neutron sources with high neutron flux have abundant applications in medicine, industry and researches. the most important general characteristic of miniature neutron sources is their diameter which is 3mm in average. in this research, we have surveyed and designed an am-be miniature neutron source fabrication. materials and methods: this investigation resulted in creation...

In order to understand the mechanisms involved in the extraction processes developed to separate minor actinides, the “ligand/metallic cation” complexes formed in the organic phases are characterized by electrospray ionization-mass-spectrometry (ESI-MS). This paper deals with the application of the ESI-MS technique to analyze americium complexes in organic solutions. Two extractant systems are ...

Abstract The component additive model UNiSeCs II for simulating the physicochemical behaviour of radionuclides americium, plutonium and selenium in agricultural soils is presented. validated by estimating distribution coefficients (K d ) these elements measured batch experiments from literature. For all three elements, resulting average relative deviations experimental values are smaller than a...
