High Efficiency Resonance Laser Ionization of Actinides
ORAL
Abstract
In the past decade the requirements for an ultra-low background for neutrino experiments have become more stringent. Several methods are used to reduce background including the use of ultra-pure materials. Resonance Ionization Mass Spectroscopy (RIMS) has been proposed as an efficient spectroscopic technique well suited for trace analysis; it provides high to ultra-high isotopic selectivity and very good overall efficiency. In this work we report the efficiency measured for Th, U and Pu using RIMS setup at Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
