Xe.sup.20+ irradiation effects on soil holding simulated An.sup.4+ waste

This work investigated the irradiation behavior of gray desert soil holding simulated An.sup.4+ waste under an irradiation of 1.5 MeV Xe.sup.20+ to fluences from 1 x 10.sup.12 to 1 x 10.sup.15 ions cm.sup.- 2. The results indicated that the structure has no obvious change due to irradiation fluences...

Summary:This work investigated the irradiation behavior of gray desert soil holding simulated An.sup.4+ waste under an irradiation of 1.5 MeV Xe.sup.20+ to fluences from 1 x 10.sup.12 to 1 x 10.sup.15 ions cm.sup.- 2. The results indicated that the structure has no obvious change due to irradiation fluences and waste load. The normalized leaching rate of Ce after 28 days of the MCC-1 test is in the order of 1 x 10.sup.- 5 g cm.sup.- 2 d.sup.- 1 before and after irradiation. This work identifies gray desert soil, which has good radiation resistance, as a potential matrix for solidification tetravalent actinides. Graphic abstract
