Method of standard sets of the nuclides of U-Th natural series for nuclear dating
The characteristics of terrestrial radioactivity can be used for the nuclear dating procedure in the framework of standard sets of nuclides (SMN). The method allows accounting for almost all natural series U/Th radionuclides. It can point out the time of the event and the reliability of dating for the objects of study. The latter is important to study whether restarting the nuclear chronometer violates the isotopes’ radioactive balance et al. The SSN method's abilities are illustrated by the example of both rocks and soil samples of Transcarpathia's mountainous regions with different degrees of openness/closedness of radionuclide systems. The isotopes of 238U natural series were used for nuclear dating procedures.
The study's actual conditions were simulated using statistical testing, allowing for the low-background experiment's errors to be considered. It is shown that the value of the ratio of radium isotopes to uranium and thorium to uranium in soils can serve as a characteristic of the soil formation process.
期刊介绍:
Applied Radiation and Isotopes provides a high quality medium for the publication of substantial, original and scientific and technological papers on the development and peaceful application of nuclear, radiation and radionuclide techniques in chemistry, physics, biochemistry, biology, medicine, security, engineering and in the earth, planetary and environmental sciences, all including dosimetry. Nuclear techniques are defined in the broadest sense and both experimental and theoretical papers are welcome. They include the development and use of α- and β-particles, X-rays and γ-rays, neutrons and other nuclear particles and radiations from all sources, including radionuclides, synchrotron sources, cyclotrons and reactors and from the natural environment.
The journal aims to publish papers with significance to an international audience, containing substantial novelty and scientific impact. The Editors reserve the rights to reject, with or without external review, papers that do not meet these criteria.
Papers dealing with radiation processing, i.e., where radiation is used to bring about a biological, chemical or physical change in a material, should be directed to our sister journal Radiation Physics and Chemistry.
