Analytical Radiochemical Method Development for Mark 18A Program
The Savannah River National Laboratory Nuclear Measurements Group was tasked by the Mark 18A Program team with developing three analytical characterization methods. These methods will support process and waste characterization of the Mark 18A program material. While methods already existed for most analytes of interest to the Mark 18A program team, the Nuclear Measurements Group developed and refined methods to quantify the Cf isotopes, 107 Pd, and 121m Sn. The results of that effort are presented in this work. Methods were successfully developed to characterize the Mark 18A samples for the needed isotopes and the NMG is ready to receive Mark 18A program samples.
