Chemical aspects of /sup 237/ Np Moessbauer spectroscopy

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5054939
The /sup 237/Np Moessbauer effect has been especially useful in studies of neptunium chemistry, by virtue of its excellent resolution and straightforward experimental techniques. Neptunium can have valences from +3 to +7, and a broad range of compounds can be prepared that are analogous to those of other actinide elements. Studies on neptunium compounds, for example, have a ready application to the analogous compounds of uranium and plutonium. The emphasis in this paper will be on the application of the /sup 237/Np Moessbauer effect to problems in neptunium chemistry.
