Separation of elements produced in nuclear reactions from an aluminium catcher foil by volatilization

Description
An aluminium foil serving as a catcher for recoil atoms from nuclear reactions induced by heavy ions was placed on graphite powder and heated in a quartz equipment in helium stream at different temperatures up to 11700C. As a result, almost quantitative (> 80%) separation of volatile elements (Hg, Tl, Pb, Bi, Po and others) has been achieved on a cold tantalum collector foil. Platinum, lanthanides and other non-volatile elements are retained in aluminium. (orig.)
Abstract (German)
Eine Aluminiumfolie, die als Faenger fuer Rueckstossatome aus durch Schwerionen induzierte Kernreaktionen dient, wurde auf Graphitpuder gebettet und in einer Quartzvorrichtung im Heliumstrom bei unterschiedlichen Temperaturen bis zu 11700C erhitzt. Hierdurch wurde eine fast quantitative (> 80%) Abtrennung der fluechtigen Elemente (Hg, Tl, Pb, Bi, Po und andere) an einer kalten Kollektorfolie aus Tantal erzielt. Platin, Lanthanide und andere nicht fluechtige Elemente bleiben in der Aluminiumfolie zurueck. (orig.)Additional details
