Sulfridge, C; Jones, H C

Descriptions, including photographs, are presented of the two isotopic-ratio mass spectrometers which have been developed for the analysis of uranium hexafluoride. The objectives were to have these spectrometers meet the sensitivity and precision requirements of development and improvement programs at uranium enrichment facilities, and for universal application to on-stream monitoring of UF/sub 4/ in enrichment facilities.
