Determination of ²³⁸U Content by Gamma Radiation Emitting from ^234mPa Radionuclide by A. Khruschinski, S. Kutsen, A. Zhukouski, Naoyuki Sugai, Hiroshi Sugai, Michinori Mogi

“…Radionuclide 238U is one of the most important radioactive elements that must be controlled in nuclear power engineering, geological exploration, control of radioactive contamination of soils and raw materials used in construction. The most optimal way to control 238U is to use the 234mPa radionuclide, the activity of which, due to its short lifetime (≈ 1.2 min), is unambiguously related to the activity of 238U even if the secular equilibrium is disturbed in the sample under studyРossibility of use of the 234mPa nuclide gamma radiation to determine 238U with a scintillation detector in a medium containing natural radionuclides is investigated and demonstrated using the simplest examples. …”
