Description

Four mass spectrometers are used for plutonium and uranium isotopic composition analysis in the Plutonium Fuel Center. Analytical errors of the analysis was evaluated based on routine control data obtained with measurement of reference materials. It was confirmed that the errors satisfied the International Target Values for safeguard analysis, and the random error of the analysis was improved by changing conventional method to total evaporation method.
