The prototype mini carbon dating system (MICADAS) at ETH Zurich has been in routine operation for almost 2 yr. Because of its simple and compact layout, setting up a radiocarbon measurement is fast the runs very reliably over days or even weeks without retuning. stability instrument responsible good performance highest-precision measurements where results single samples can be reproduced within less than 2‰. are described MICADAS demonstrated on measured data.
The main methods applied to clean plant material for radiocarbon dating are not compound-specific and generally remove only the easily exchangeable components by an acid-base-acid sequence additional optional steps like Soxhlet extraction resins oxidative bleaching with NaClO 2 . products normally enough standard 14 C measurement, but in some cases it is desirable have pure cellulose, which remains unchanged immobile over longer time ranges, better representing original material. In this...
The reaction conditions for the graphitization of CO 2 with hydrogen were optimized a fast production high-quality carbon samples accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) measurement. iron catalyst in use is first oxidized by heating air to remove possible and other impurities then after evacuation reduced back several flushing steps any oxide. optimum experimentally determined changing temperatures H /CO ratio. resulting graphite measured AMS find smallest isotopic changes (δ 13 C) at minimum...
Abstract 90 Sr is one of the most monitored fission products. New efficient methods for strontium separation are therefore sought. Over past 20 years, crown ethers solutions in ionic liquids (ILs) have been confirmed to efficiently extract from acidic solutions. Despite all work done this field, extraction mechanism still not completely clear. Depending on experimental conditions, believed proceed either form an ion-association complex [Sr·CE·(NO 3 ) 2 ] or via exchange between [Sr·CE] 2+...
Continuous and future-oriented education training as well knowledge management for young talents are required the safe reliable operation of nuclear reactors facilities in Europe. A dedicated line collaborative projects addresses specific needs, such lack personnel (project ENEN+: “attract, retain develop new beyond academic curricula”). State-of-the-art approaches in-depth provided when it comes to reactor physics GRE@T-PIONEeR: “graduate alliance teaching safety reactors”) or...
