Compared to other elements on the periodic table, technetium and the actinides are less explored, especially in areas of compound synthesis and coordination chemistry. The nuclear fuel cycle offers opportunities to investigate fundamental and applied technetium and actinide chemistry in more detail, with fundamental complexation chemistry providing insight into waste forms, fuels, and...

In metallic nuclear fuels, uranium will interact with fission products formed at higher burn-ups. Understanding the binary interactions between components is helpful in building a description of the overall system consisting of fuel and fission products. Many of the fission product metals are easy to obtain and study in reactions with metallic depleted uranium to simulate conditions in an...

Development of laser spectroscopy with tunable lasers gives rise to new procedures for detection of trace amounts of various substances in various media. A possibility to tune a wavelength of laser radiation allows selective action on certain atoms and molecules and, hence, selective detection of these species [1]. The practical application of laser spectroscopy to analysis of different...

This talk will focus on energy transfer phenomena between hexavalent uranium (U) ions (U(VI)) and trivalent europium ions (Eu(III)). In the literature on this subject [1-3], the interaction between U(VI) and Eu(III) was explained as intramolecular energy transfer from excited U(VI) to Eu(III), and thus, the strong quenching of the luminescence of excited U(VI) by Eu(III) was observed. Because...

This experimental study seeks for stability constants $\beta_m°$, absorption $Z_m(\lambda)$ and fluorescence $Z_m(\lambda)$ spectra (including fluorescence lifetimes $\tau_m$) for the individual species of the general formula $[UO_2(ChO_4)_n]^{2-2n}$ (n $\in$ {0; 1; 2; 3}), specific ion interaction theory parameters $\epsilon(i,j)$ between uran-containing species and the most dominantly...
