    Thermal behaviour of rock and environmental samples during proton irradiation

    The temperature in powdered rock and environmental samples irradiated with 23 MeV protons was measured. Under helium (3–9·105 Pa) the obtained temperature is considerably lower than under vacuum. Irradiation unde...

    The determination of lead in environmental and geological materials by proton activation analysis

    Lead is determined in environmental samples and in rocks using the206,207,208Pb(p,xn)206Bi reaction. Bismuth is separated by anion exchange or by extraction with antimony diethyldithiocarbamate. Sources of errors...

    Determination of cadmium, thallium and lead in environmental samples by proton activation analysis

    Cadmium, thallium and lead are determined in environmental samples using the111,112,113Cd(p,xn)111In,203Tl(p,3n)201Pb and206,207,208Pb(p,xn)206Bi reactions.111In.201Pb and206Bi are chemically separated by anion e...

    Determination of lead in copper by proton activation analysis

    A novel method for the determination of lead in copper by proton, activation analysis has been developed. The bismuth activity formed was, separated from the matrix activity by anion exchange chromatography. S...

    Variable isotopic composition of lead as a source of systematic error in proton activation analysis

    This paper considers the variable isotopic composition of lead as a possible source of systematic errors in proton activation analysis. The importance of this source of error was evaluated for environmental an...
