Title: The gamma-spectrometric determination of ratios and its application to fuel burn-up
Abstract: High resolution gamma-spectrometry was applied to determine the 241Pu/239Pu isotopic ratios in plutonium bearing fuels. The photopeaks at 129, 148 and 208 keV were utilized. From the 241Pu/239Pu ratio, the integrated neutron flux and the burn-up can be calculated. The method has been tested by comparing the results obtained from uranium and plutonium ratios in a Pu/U fuel.
