1. The Chemistry of Plutonium Solubility
Sammanfattning : When designing a repository for spent nuclear fuel it is necessary to assess the possibility that radionuclides will be transported from the repository by groundwater. A limiting factor for such transport is the solubility of any given radionuclide. LÄS MER
2. The Use of Aliquat-336 in a Partitioning and Transmutation Process and a Kinetic Study of the Oxidation of U(IV) to U(VI)
Sammanfattning : Spent nuclear fuel contains several long-lived radionuclides that must be stored in a safe manner for a long time. Transmutation of these radionuclides into short-lived or stable nuclides reduces the necessary storage time by several orders of magnitude. The nuclides most suitable for transmutation are those of the actinides. LÄS MER
3. Studies of actinides in a superanoxic fjord
Sammanfattning : Water column and sediment profiles of plutonium, americium, thorium and uranium have been obtained in the superanoxic Framvaren fjord, southern Norway. The concentrations of bomb test fallout Pu, Am as well as 'dissolved' Th in the bottom water are the highest recorded in the marine environment. LÄS MER
4. X-ray Spectroscopic Studies of Materials for Nuclear Technology
Sammanfattning : X-ray spectroscopic experiments, including X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) and resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS), were performed in a large energy range (60-9000 eV) on a variety of systems, probing different elements and orbitals. The systems can preferably be divided into three groups: Actinides, copper systems and amorphous materials. LÄS MER
5. Homogeneous radiolysis studies using 238Pu
Sammanfattning : Used nuclear fuel contains radiotoxic elements with lifetimes in the range of 100 000 years. Although possibilities for recycling of the fuel exist, a final storage for the ultimate high-level waste will be necessary. LÄS MER
