A case study on the use of carbon sticky tabs for microbeam uranium isotope measurement with an emphasis on understanding the influence of subtle variations in substrate composition
In this paper we integrate laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS), large geometry secondary ion mass spectrometry (LG-SIMS), laser ablation—multi collector—inductively coupled plasma—mass spectrometry (LA-MC-ICP-MS), and trace elemental compositions obtained by bulk digestion from a suite of commercially available carbon sticky tabs to determine if subtle variations i…

KAPL Waste Analysis Report
This report discusses the processes involved with the characterization of an unknown amount of Knolls Atomic Power Laboratory (KAPL) material for future removal and disposal at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP). The material underwent pulverization prior to transfer to the Irradiated Fuels Experimental Laboratory (IFEL) North Hot Cells to remove visual classification.…
