Development of lowenergy accelerator-based production of medical isotopes [PDF]
Here we present methods for production of new and existing isotopes for SPECT (Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography) and PET (Positron Emission Tomography) imaging using accelerator-based systems.

The Osmium Isotope Signature of Phanerozoic Large Igneous Provinces
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

A score of bioavailable strontium isotope archaeology in China: Retrospective and prospective
Bioavailable strontium isotope analysis was proposed for prehistoric human ecology almost 40 years ago and rapidly became one of the most important tools to trace past migratory behaviours.

Strontium as a tracer of weathering processes in a silicate catchment polluted by acid atmospheric inputs, Strengbach, France [PDF]
This paper determines the weathering and atmospheric contributions of Ca in surface water from a small spruce forested silicate catchment (N–E France) receiving acid atmospheric inputs.

In the southwest Japan forearc, slab‐fluids produced from subducted materials migrate to crustal levels and appear as deep‐seated brine. We have analyzed for the first‐time stable strontium isotopes in non‐volcanic spring water with high salinity ...

Reconstructing Pleistocene Australian herbivore megafauna diet using calcium and strontium isotopes
Isotopes in fossil tooth enamel provide robust tools for reconstructing food webs, which have been understudied in Australian megafauna. To delineate the isotopic composition of primary consumers and understand dietary behaviour at the base of the food ...

Machine-learning-based automated loading of strontium isotopes into magneto-optical trap
We implemented optimization techniques of machine learning (ML) to obtain the mutually exclusive sets of experimental parameters that maximize the number of strontium atoms of different isotopes (88Sr, 86Sr, and 87Sr) in a magneto-optical trap (MOT ...

Evidence of hydrological control of Sr behavior in stream water (Strengbach catchment, Vosges mountains, France) [PDF]
Strontium and particularly 87Sr/86Sr ratios in stream water have often been used to calculate weathering rates in catchments. Nevertheless, in the literature, discharge variation effects on the geochemical behavior of Sr are often omitted or considered ...
