Status of a test of induced depletion of $^{108m}$Ag using bremsstrahlung at Youngstown State University's X-ray Effects Laboratory

ORAL

Abstract

It has been suggested that long-lived nuclear isomers could provide energy storage for applications. Utilizing an isomer in an application would require some means by which to induce a premature energy release due to a depletion of the number of nuclei in the isomeric state within a sample. An experiment is in development as part of Youngstown State University's Isomer Physics Project to test if an induced depletion of the 418 year isomer of $^{108}$Ag can be caused by bremsstrahlung at YSU's X-ray Effects Laboratory (XEL). This talk will discuss the aims, design and status of the experiment.
