A comprehensive global oceanic dataset of helium isotope and tritium measurements

open access: yesEarth System Science Data, 2018
. Tritium and helium isotope data provide key information on ocean circulation, ventilation, and mixing, as well as the rates of biogeochemical processes and deep-ocean hydrothermal processes. We present here global oceanic datasets of tritium and helium

Tritium and 14 C in the Environment and Nuclear Facilities: Sources and Analytical Methods

open access: yes, 2018
Tritium and 14 C are two most important radionuclides released from nuclear facilities to the environment, and 14 C contributes dominant radiation dose to the population around nuclear power plants.

Combustion method for assay of biological materials labeled with carbon-14 or tritium, or double-labeled [PDF]

open access: yes, 1969
Dry catalytic combustion at high temperatures is used for assaying biological materials labeled carbon-14 and tritium, or double-labeled. A modified oxygen-flask technique is combined with standard vacuum-line techniques and includes convenience of ...

Using Cold Atoms to Measure Neutrino Mass

open access: yes, 2010
We propose a beta decay experiment based on a sample of ultracold atomic tritium. These initial conditions enable detection of the helium ion in coincidence with the beta.

Reconstructed Precipitation Tritium Leads to Overestimated Groundwater Recharge

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 2018
Time series of precipitation tritium contents are often used for groundwater recharge estimation based on the tritium mass ratio of the (un) saturated zones to precipitation. But records of the precipitation tritium measurements are sparse and often need

DOSE ASSESSMENT FOR INTAKE OF TRITIATED WATER IN HUMANS: ROLE OF TRITIUM INCORPORATION IN ORGANIC MATTER

open access: yesРадиационная гигиена, 2017
Tritium is one of the factors of internal exposure of the humans both in occupational and public environments. It enters the body mainly as tritiated water through inhalation, with food, drinks and through the skin; part of tritium gradually transforms ...

Comment on "Deuterium--tritium fusion reactors without external fusion breeding" by Eliezer et al

open access: yes, 2002
Inclusion of inverse Compton effects in the calculation of deuterium-deuterium burn under the extreme conditions considered by Eliezer et al. [Phys. Lett. A 243 (1998) 298] are shown to decrease the maximum burn temperature from about 300 keV to only 100-

Tritium Control and Capture in Salt-Cooled Fission and Fusion Reactors: Status, Challenges, and Path Forward

open access: yes, 2017
Three advanced nuclear power systems use liquid salt coolants that generate tritium and thus face the common challenges of containing and capturing tritium to prevent its release to the environment. The fluoride salt–cooled high-temperature reactor (FHR)

In vivo animal studies help achieve international consensus on standards and guidelines for health risk estimates for chronic exposure to low levels of tritium in drinking water

open access: yesEnvironmental and Molecular Mutagenesis, 2018
Existing and future nuclear fusion technologies involve the production and use of large quantities of tritium, a highly volatile, but low toxicity beta‐emitting isotope of hydrogen.

Calibration of tritium enrichment factor in solid-polymer electrolyte device based on correlation between deuterium and tritium

open access: yesHe jishu
BackgroundSolid-polymer electrolyte (SPE) water electrolysis has been widely used to concentrate low-level environmental tritium for measurements. It has the advantages of electrolyte elimination, infinite reduction ratio, high current, safety, and ...
