Abstract
Gamma activation analysis of Se was performed during its irradiation with bremsstrahlung gamma radiation at the Microtron-ST cyclic electron accelerator (E = 21 MeV). Irradiation was carried out at room temperature for 1 h and gamma quanta intensity of ~5 × 1013 γ/s. Se samples in the form of granules (balls) weighing 5–10 mg and microparticles (powder) were studied. Microparticle samples were suspended in distilled water in a plastic capsule. After irradiation of samples with gamma quanta, the induced radioactivity was measured on an SBS-75 gamma spectrometer with a semiconductor detector. Energy spectra of selenium radionuclides were obtained. Analysis of spectra of radionuclides showed the absence of impurity chemical elements in the selenium samples.
期刊介绍:
Inorganic Materials: Applied Research contains translations of research articles devoted to applied aspects of inorganic materials. Best articles are selected from four Russian periodicals: Materialovedenie, Perspektivnye Materialy, Fizika i Khimiya Obrabotki Materialov, and Voprosy Materialovedeniya and translated into English. The journal reports recent achievements in materials science: physical and chemical bases of materials science; effects of synergism in composite materials; computer simulations; creation of new materials (including carbon-based materials and ceramics, semiconductors, superconductors, composite materials, polymers, materials for nuclear engineering, materials for aircraft and space engineering, materials for quantum electronics, materials for electronics and optoelectronics, materials for nuclear and thermonuclear power engineering, radiation-hardened materials, materials for use in medicine, etc.); analytical techniques; structure–property relationships; nanostructures and nanotechnologies; advanced technologies; use of hydrogen in structural materials; and economic and environmental issues. The journal also considers engineering issues of materials processing with plasma, high-gradient crystallization, laser technology, and ultrasonic technology. Currently the journal does not accept direct submissions, but submissions to one of the source journals is possible.
