9780428092320 - Calibrated Glass Standards for Fission Track Use (Classic Reprint) de Carpenter, Stephen (1 resultados)

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a collection of four different glass standards developed by the National Bureau of Standards. These standards are specifically designed for use with the fission track method, a widely accepted technique for uranium analysis and radiometric dating. The book provides detailed characterization of these glasses, including their uranium concentrations, isotopic abundances, and concentrations of elements that could potentially interfere with track measurements. Activation energies for track fading in these glasses are also provided, along with recommendations for proper storage and handling to prevent partial annealing of tracks. The book concludes with a discussion of the significance of these standards in ensuring the accuracy and reliability of fission track measurements, particularly in the fields of uranium analysis and radiometric dating, making them invaluable resources for researchers and practitioners in these fields.
