Crystal structure of [UO2(NH3)5]NO3·NH3
Pentaammine dioxide uranium(V) nitrate ammonia (1/1), [UO2(NH3)5]NO3·NH3, was obtained in the form of yellow crystals from the reaction of caesium uranyl nitrate, Cs[UO2(NO3)3], and uranium tetrafluoride, UF4, in dry liquid ammonia.

Soil Contamination Around the Copper Smelter and the Use of Soil Microarthropods as Bioindicators
ABSTRACT Soil contamination from smelter emissions, including heavy metals (HM), rare earth elements (REEs), and sulfur, poses a significant threat to soil ecosystems. In the immediate vicinity of the Głogów Copper Smelter, HM concentrations were several times higher than in more distant forest stands.

ABSTRACT Microporous carbonate rocks typically record complex diagenetic histories driven by microbial activity and fluid interactions within multiple diagenetic environments. The relative roles of meteoric and burial diagenetic processes in pore evolution remain debated, particularly within Cretaceous carbonate systems of the Middle East, as does the ...

OBTAINING HYDROGEN FLUORIDE FROM URANIUM HEXAFLUORIDE IN COMBUSTION MODE
Uranium hexafluoride, depleted in the isotope U-235 (DUHF), is a by-product of the isotopic enrichment of uranium in the nuclear fuel cycle, which is sent for long-term storage. Currently, there are no effective industrial technologies allowing to return
