Abstract

PNNL has been procured a Cameca 1280 Large Radius Secondary Ions Mass Spectrometer (LRSIMS) from the Amtek corporation out of France. This state-of-the-art instrument is aligning PNNL to deliver to NNSA the ability to address issues from proliferation detection to nuclear archeology of reactor operation and cascade enrichment history verification pushing beyond the limits of currently available methods and instrumentation at PNNL.
