Adaptation of the Method of Radiochemical Determination of Plutonium Isotopes in Soil from the Semipalatinsk Test Site
https://doi.org/10.18412/1816-0395-2019-9-36-41
Abstract
Presents the results of work to determine the optimal conditions for chemical extraction of samples; solutions are described to minimize the loss of the target radionuclide in the process of chemical separation; the factors influencing the completeness of plutonium isotope precipitation were experimentally determined and eliminated.
