Determination of ²⁴¹Pu in environmental samples by a radiochemical procedure

Holm, E.

AbstractThe development of a radiochemical procedure for determining ²⁴¹Pu in environmental samples, by measuring the ²⁴¹Am built up in plutonium originally electrodeposited on stainless steel discs is presented and discussed. Results are given for environmental samples contaminated by plutonium from different sources. The ²⁴¹Pu/^239+240Pu activity ratio and also the ²³⁸Pu/^239+240Pu activity ratio characterize the source term. The activity ratios in samples contaminated from different sources can be arranged in the following sequence: Chernobyl accident > Nuclear fuel reprocessing plants > Nuclear explosion tests > Nuclear weapon accidents.
