Rapid nondestructive plutonium isotopic analysis

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5803652
Methods for plutonium isotopic measurements have been evaluated for nuclear safeguards inventory verification. A mobile, real-time, nondestructive assay, gamma-ray spectrometric measurement system has been assembled, moved and operated at several nuclear storage facilities to perform rapid, real-time plutonium isotopic measurements on Pu metal, Pu nitrate and Pu oxide.
