Pd–Ag alloys are largely used as hydrogen separation membranes and, a consequence, the Pd–Ag–H system has been intensively studied. On contrary, fewer information is available for Pd–Ag–D system; thus, aim of this work to improve knowledge isotope effect on commercial Pd77Ag23 alloy, especially temperature above 200 °C. In particular, deuterium absorption measurements carried out in alloy range...

Application of two-photon selective excitation to isotope separation with high power, high resolution tunable lasers is discussed. A simple kinetic model is given to determine quantum efficiency and separation factor in terms of laser powers and relaxation constants. A numerical example is used to demonstrate the feasibility of the scheme. Results indicate that a high quantum yield is obtainabl...

Combining HPLC separation, TIMS measurements and revised reference values help in measuring Am, Cm Nd isotope ratios irradiated samples.

The RISING (Rare ISotope INvestigations at GSI) project [1] combines the EUROBALL Cluster Ge-detectors [2] and the fragment separator FRS [3] for high-resolution γ-ray spectroscopy measurements after in-flight isotope separation. In a first campaign relativistic Coulomb excitation of radioactive projectiles and the spectroscopy of nuclei excited in secondary fragmentation reactions were examine...
