target for measurement of

Times Cited Count:0 Percentile:0.00A series of in-house PdI
standards appropriate for AMS was prepared by quantitatively mixing the
I/
I isotope standard solution and
I solution. The dominant interferences from
Pd
were successfully suppressed by adjusting the electrostatic cylindrical analyser, etc., to select the ion beams finely. As a result, the
I/
I atom ratios of PdI
prepared from the seawater and dolomite samples agreed with those prepared as AgI, respectively. The pretreatment time for the new method was shortened by 33% compared to the conventional method. This study demonstrated a new approach to
I analysis in AMS that departs from conventional methods.

Journal of Radioanalytical and Nuclear Chemistry, 7 Pages, 2025/07
Times Cited Count:0 Percentile:0.00(Chemistry, Analytical)In this study, the radiocarbon isotope ratio, 
C, was used to identify the sources of suspended sediment and
Cs discharged into rivers after the Fukushima nuclear accident. Suspended sediments were collected during the flood event and under normal water conditions to determine
Cs concentrations, 
C, and stable carbon isotope ratios. The results indicated that the contribution of forest surface soil runoff increased during the flood peak. Furthermore, the distribution of
Cs deposition in the watershed was reflected in temporal changes in suspended
Cs concentration during the flood event. This approach provides a comprehensive understanding of both
Cs and carbon dynamics.

Times Cited Count:0 Percentile:0.00(Chemistry, Analytical)In this study, the solvent extraction behavior of tin (Sn), specifically
Sn, from high-level radioactive waste was evaluated using six different extractants in a HNO
system. Among the tested extractants, N,N-Didodecyl-2-hydroxyacetoamide (HAA) exhibited higher efficiency, still not sufficient for industrial implementation. In systems where HCl was added to HNO
, both tributyl phosphate (TBP) and N,N,N,N'-tetra-2-ethylhexyl diglycolamide (TEHDGA) achieved D
values greater than 1 at
1 M HCl. However, due to practical challenges in industrial applications, HAA extraction in HNO
systems, particularly at low Sn concentrations (0.0008 M), may provide a more effective solution for Sn recovery.

Times Cited Count:1 Percentile:33.61(Chemistry, Analytical)Solvent extraction behaviors of Se (VI) from nitric acid solutions were investigated with multiple extractants used for uranium, plutonium, minor actinides, and rare earthelements separation processes from high-level liquid waste. During the processes, Se remained in the residual aqueous solutions, as all extractants showed distributionratios
1. In contrast, Se showed distribution ratios
1 with
-phenylenediamine in dilute nitric acid (
2 M HNO
), octanol as the organic phase, and concentrated nitric acid (8 M HNO
) for back extraction, suggesting a potential new single separation process and recovery of Se.

Ra purity as a target for
Ac production using a fast reactorSasaki, Yuto; Maeda, Shigetaka
Journal of Radioanalytical and Nuclear Chemistry, 333, p.5987 - 5996, 2024/02
Times Cited Count:1 Percentile:33.61(Chemistry, Analytical)Researchers are seeking alternative
Ac production methods because of the scarcity of
Ac for targeted alpha therapy. Although
Ra from waste sources has been considered, obtaining
Ra is challenging. Therefore, the authors focused on the contamination of minerals with
Th-derived
Ra while investigating methods to recover
Ra from uranium ores. The effect of 228Ra contamination on
Ac production by
Ra transmutation using fast reactors was evaluated. Consequently, toxic
Ac contaminates
Ac. However, using the different half-lives of
Ac and
Ac, pure
Ac can be obtained from the chemical separation of actinium after cooling for 5-8 days.

Times Cited Count:5 Percentile:70.39(Chemistry, Analytical)Technetium-99m (
Tc) is the most widely used medical radioisotope in the world and is produced from molybdenum-99 (
Mo). Production of
Mo via the neutron capture method draws attention as an alternative to fission-derived
Mo due to non-proliferation issues, but the specific radioactivity of
Mo is extremely low. In this work, a porous
-MoO
wire was prepared as an irradiation target in order to improve the specific activity by extracting
Mo. Porous
-MoO
wire is synthesized from Mo metal wire by a two-step heating procedure. The hot atom effect of
Mo was confirmed by activity and isotope measurements of the porous
-MoO
wire after neutron irradiation and the water used for extraction. In term of the extraction effectiveness, the effectiveness of
Mo extraction in the porous
-MoO
wire was comparable to that of commercial
-MoO
powder.
