The Guo Lab Capabilities

Transuranium Lab

Laboratory:

In a partnership with the Nuclear Science Center (Dodgen Reactor Facility), the labs at Dodgen B21, B121 can handle radioactive materials:

  • Large quantity of 232Th, 238U;
  • Moderate amounts (mg) of Np, Pu, (Am, Cm, Cf and other transuranium) (~ 100 Ci/yr).

Transuranium related experiments:

Thermochemistry:

  • Various calorimeters (AlexSYS, SetSYS);
  • Negative-pressure radiological glovebox.

High pressure/High temperature:

  • High-pressure DACs,
  • Molten salt heating modulus.
