Description

Ashes generated in the incinerator for radioactive waste at the Kaya Memorial Takizawa Laboratory was analyzed using the PIXE system established at the Nishina Memorial Cyclotron Center. An easy method of sample preparation of ash powder for the PIXE is described. Many elements in the ash sample were detected. The PIXE used in this study is shown to be a very valuable method for analyzing the ash. (author)
