Production of Radioactive Nuclides in Inverse Reaction Kinematics
Efficient production of short-lived radioactive isotopes in inverse reaction kinematics is an important technique for various applications. It is particularly interesting when the isotope of interest is only a few nucleons away from a stable isotope. In this article production via charge exchange and stripping reactions in combination with a magnetic separator is explored. The relation between ...
متن کاملResidence time of tropospheric aerosols in association with radioactive nuclides.
The residence time of atmospheric aerosol particles is a function of various removal processes, such as dry deposition by impaction, diffusion, sedimentation and resuspension as well as wet deposition by rain drops (precipitation scavenging). Estimation of the mean-residence time of atmospheric aerosols could be based on measurements of the activities and ratios of activities of cosmic-ray prod...
متن کاملRadioactive Aerosols in the Environment
Radioactive aerosols differ physically from non-radioactive aerosols by the appreciable charge that they may carry. This arises from a competition between the charge generated by the radioactive decays occurring within each aerosol and the subsequent diffusion of the ions formed back onto the particle. At high levels of activity, the particles may self-discharge, at low and intermediate activit...
متن کاملHighly sensitive measurements of radioactive noble gas nuclides in the BOREXINO solar neutrino experiment.
Low background miniaturized proportional counters as developed for the GALLEX solar neutrino experiment can be applied to the detection of radioactive noble gas nuclides at very low activities. We have developed an apparatus that allows the activity of trace amounts of isotopes of the four noble gases Ar, Kr, Xe and Rn to be measured. The technique includes contamination-free chromatographic pu...
متن کاملLevels and trends of radioactive contaminants in the Greenland environment.
Levels of radioactive contaminants in various Greenland environments have been assessed during 1999-2001. The source of 137Cs, 90Sr and (239,240)Pu in terrestrial and fresh water environments is mainly global fallout. In addition, the Chernobyl accident gave a small contribution of 137Cs. Reindeer and lamb contain the largest observed 137Cs concentrations in the terrestrial environment--up to 8...
