Advanced Analysis of Plutonium: Pre- and Post-Detonation Scenarios
- Los Alamos National Lab. (LANL), Los Alamos, NM (United States)
A Dissertation Presented for the Doctor of Philosophy Degree in Nuclear Engineering. Overarching research question: Do nuclear reactions in surface environment lead to distinctive chemical and isotopic signatures that are not present in nature? Testable hypothesis: Nuclear processes will lead to distinctive chemical and isotopic patterns of partitioning because high-temperature processes under high radiation rarely occur in natural surface environment.
