Optical spectroscopic SNM assay (OSS). Quarterly report, January 1-March 31, 1982

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5262872
The high-resolution ICP (Inductively Coupled Plasma) apparatus was used this quarter to investigate the isotopic spectra of Pb and U. Isotopic resolution of two U emission lines previously not studied are presented (468.9 nm and 256.5 nm) and a linear calibration curve for U-235 assay, based on the 424.4 nm emission line, is presented. A proposed alpha-containment facility for Pu experimentation is discussed.
