SOME ACHIEVEMENTS AND POSSIBILITIES OF THE USE OF RADIOACTIVE ISOTOPES AND OF NUCLEAR RADIATIONS IN THE SOVIET INDUSTRY AND SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH (in Russian)
Applied nuclear physics, a new branch of science and technology, includes the utilization of isotopes and of nuclear radiations in science and industry, application of reactors and of charged-particle accelerators, and study of radiation effects. Many old processes were thus improved: the tagged atom'' technique presents high sensitivty and accuracy,-it allows determination of certain elements, such as P or Co in mixtures with an accuracy of about 10/sup-10/ % Currentiy used radioactive methods in the Soviet Union include: study of the properties of materials, reaction mechanisms, analysis of impurities, structural determinations, geological prospecting for ores and coal, drilling for oil, instrumentation and control systems for mechanizing and automatizing industrial processes, development of new industrial methods, such as polymerization, sulfochlorination, oxidation, sterilization by means of radiation, removal of undesired electrostatic charges, quality control, and detection of cracks and other defects in manufactured goods. Radioactive logging methods are quite widespread. Use of radioactive techniques in metallurgy, chemical industry and Soviet research installations are described. (TTT)
