Radiochemical separation of thorium from 18O induced reaction with natural uranium
- 1. Academia Sinica, Lanzhou (China). Inst. of Modern Physics
Description
A radiochemical procedure used to separate and purify trace concentration thorium produced in heavy ion reaction with uranium targets is presented. The procedure can rapidly yield thorium fraction suitable for gamma-ray spectroscopy studies. The resultant gamma-ray spectra showed that Th was isolated from a large number of elements produced in the reaction, and there were only a few contaminating activities of isotopes of Sc, Cd, In, etc. The decontamination factors for the main reaction products are given
