Use of $alpha$ Counting in the Study of the Homogeneity of Various Uranium Alloys; UTILISATION DES COMPTAGES $alpha$ POUR L'ETUDE DE L'HOMOGENEITE DE QUELQUES ALLIAGES D'URANIUM

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4199586

A method for measuring the homogeneity of U-Mo and U-Zr alloys, using the counting of the alpha particles of uranium in an ionization chamber is described. This method allows the detection of a variation of composition of 0.5 per cent in an alloy containing 90 per cent uranium. (auth)
