Optical-spectroscopic SNM assay. Quarterly report, April 1, 1982-June 30, 1982

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6677805
Simulations of the high-resolution spectrum of Pu II (4021.422A) are presented and discussed. These simulations suggest that the Pu-240, Pu-241 components of this line are resolved for experimental linewidths smaller than 0.035A. A simulation of the expected ICP-AMES-IA (Inductively Coupled Plasma Multi-Element Emission Spectroscopy-Isotopic Assay) spectrum (FWHM = 0.026A) is presented. Additional analyses of U spectra are presented and evidence of the feasibility of safe ICP operation is presented. A trip report discussing the NRC/ORNL symposium on Low-Level Waste Disposal is appended to this report.
