Transmuting minor actinides with thermal reactor neutrons

Nuclear Energy and Technology, 2015
The closure of uranium-based fuel cycle assumes that Uranium and Plutonium are extracted from the spent fuel. Among remaining heavy nuclides, the most radioactive are minor actinides.

Minor actinide fission induced by multi-nucleon transfer reaction in inverse kinematics

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2010
In the framework of nuclear waste incineration and design of new generation nuclear reactors, experimental data on fission probabilities and on fission fragment yields of minor actinides are crucial to design prototypes.

Substitution mechanisms of zirconolite for nuclear waste form: a mini review

Frontiers in Environmental Science
Zirconolite waste forms are advanced ceramic materials for the immobilisation of HLW, particularly actinides. This paper presents a systematic review of seven common substitution mechanisms of nuclear wastes in zirconolite, categorized into two types ...

Electrodeposition of actinides: Optimization of deposition parameters by chronoamperometric studies

Nuclear Analysis
To quantify alpha-emitting radionuclides by alpha spectrometry, it is necessary to prepare a thin and uniform alpha source on a suitable substrate. Electrodeposition is the most used electrochemical technique for this purpose.

Redox‐Dependent Luminescence in a Pentavalent Uranyl Complex

ChemistryEurope
The chemistry of pentavalent uranyl is of high interest due to the ion's central role as an intermediate in nuclear separations. However, due to the instability of [UO2]+, little is known about its electronic structure. The synthesis and characterization
