Nuclear Nonproliferation Monitoring

Authors: George Rajna

Since laser ablation coupled with optical emission spectroscopy measures light emitted from a plasma, data collection can be done from a safe, standoff distance that requires no sample handling. This technique has implications for nuclear forensic and safeguards monitoring. [27] Argonne scientists look to 3-D printing to ease separation anxiety, which paves the way to recycle more nuclear material. [26] Recently, scientists suggested switching from electron to nuclear transitions that may considerably increase the precision of clocks due to higher frequency. [25] Now, physicists are working toward getting their first CT scans of the inner workings of the nucleus. [24]
