This Review summarizes a range of analytical techniques that can be used to detect, quantify, and/or distinguish between isotopes iodine (e.g., long-lived 129I, short-lived 131I, stable 127I). One reason this is interest understanding potential radioiodine release from nuclear processes crucial prevent environmental contamination and protect human health as it incorporate into the thyroid leading cancer. It also for evaluating retention performances next-generation off-gas capture materials...

Automated particle analysis (APA) provides a vast amount of compositional data via energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy along with size and shape scanning electron microscopy for individual particles in sample. In many instances, APA are leveraged to support identification the source sample based on detection specific composition. Often, that provide context make up minuscule portion Additionally, interpretation complex samples can be difficult due diversity compositions both mixture within...

We present the results of a study to generate reference glasses that reflect an environment analogous historic nuclear fallout samples interest for post‐detonation forensics. The were generated by melting and then quenching SiO 2 , Al O 3 CaCO powders. Two suites with three distinct U isotopic ratios successfully made enrichments in 235 isotope (~ natural [0.72%], ~ 53% 94%), but bulk elemental data showed heterogeneity 10% RSD) mass fractions ranging from 331.47 373.63 μg g ‐1 . Spatially...
