Abstract

Over 60 samples of plutonium dioxide (PuO 2 ) powders of varying provenance have been exposed to humid atmospheres and the hydrogen (H 2 ) generation rates measured by gas chromatography. The effects of relative humidity (RH), specific surface area (SSA), plutonium isotopic composition (absorbed dos...
