    ENCRYPTED NANOPARTICLES FOR SECURITY, COUNTER-INDUSTRIAL ESPIONAGE, AND COUNTERFEITING A Dissertation by ZACHARY ANDREW KULAGE Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, William S. Charlton Committee Members, Sean M. McDeavitt John W. Poston, Sr. Charles M. Folden III Head of Department, Yassin A. Hassan December 2013 Major Subject: Nuclear Engineering Copyright 2013 Zachary Andrew Kulage ABSTRACT Acts of terrorism and the use of explosives raise concerns about what can be done to prevent such acts. From stopping such a threat to preventing the illicit counterfeiting and smuggling of sensitive and proprietary goods, identification tag- gant technology can be applied to identify and interdict materials of a dubious na- ture. This cost effective approach to tag and track materials will find application in both the government and private sectors, particularly in the prevention of corporate espionage. A taggant system was created based on the modification of the natural isotopic vector of cadmium and tellurium to create artificial, unique, and robust identification capabilities. A proof of concept trial was undertaken to ascertain the effectiveness, reliability, and integrity of a system. Stable isotopes were mixed in various combi- nations to alter the isotopic vector and then neutron activation analysis techniques were used to evaluate the quality of the taggants. Two different neutron activation analysis facilities of differing capabilities were employed to test the limitations of the method in detection of trace amounts of taggant material. Testing of the taggant system found that solid phase taggants were capable of producing around 14,000 unique taggants for under $250 each while liquid phase taggants were capable of producing around 2,000 unique taggants for under $50 each.

  • Neutron Capture Cross Sections of Cadmium Isotopes
    Neutron Capture Cross Sections of Cadmium Isotopes By Allison Gicking A thesis submitted to Oregon State University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Science Presented June 8, 2011 Commencement June 17, 2012 Abstract The neutron capture cross sections of 106Cd, 108Cd, 110Cd, 112Cd, 114Cd and 116Cd were determined in the present project. Four different OSU TRIGA reactor facilities were used to produce redundancy in the results and to measure the thermal cross section and resonance integral separately. When the present values were compared with previously measured values, the differences were mostly due to the kind of detector used or whether or not the samples were natural cadmium. Some of the isotopes did not have any previously measured values, and in that case, new information about the cross sections of those cadmium isotopes has been provided. Table of Contents I.

Deep-UV excitation at 214.5 nm and radioactive-beam bunching provided the required experimental sensitivity. Long-lived isomers are observed in 127Cd and 129Cd for the first time. One essential feature of the spherical shell model is unambiguously confirmed by − a linear increase of the 11/2 quadrupole moments. Remarkably, this mechanism is found to act well beyond the h11/2 shell.

The standard atomic weights of four elements have been revised based on recent determinations of isotopic abundances in natural terrestrial materials: cadmium to 112.414(4) from 112.411(8), molybdenum to 95.95(1) from 95.96(2), selenium to 78.971(8) from 78.96(3), and thorium to 232.0377(4) from 232.038 06(2). The Commission on Isotopic Abundances and Atomic Weights (ciaaw.org) also revised the standard atomic weights of fifteen elements based on the 2012 Atomic Mass Evaluation: aluminium (aluminum) to 26.981 5385(7) from 26.981 5386(8), arsenic to 74.921 595(6) from 74.921 60(2), beryllium to 9.012 1831(5) from 9.012 182(3), caesium (cesium) to 132.905 451 96(6) from 132.905 4519(2), cobalt to 58.933 194(4) from 58.933 195(5), fluorine to 18.998 403 163(6) from 18.998 4032(5), gold to 196.966 569(5) from 196.966 569(4), holmium to 164.930 33(2) from 164.930 32(2), manganese to 54.938 044(3) from 54.938 045(5), niobium to 92.906 37(2) from 92.906 38(2), phosphorus to 30.973 761 998(5) from 30.973 762(2), praseodymium to 140.907 66(2) from 140.907 65(2), Article note: Sponsoring body: IUPAC Inorganic Chemistry Division Committee: see more details on page 289.

  • Precision Mass Measurements for Studies of Nucleosynthesis Via the Rapid Neutron-Capture Process
    Dissertation submitted to the Combined Faculties for the Natural Sciences and for Mathematics of the Ruperto-Carola University of Heidelberg, Germany for the degree of Doctor of Natural Sciences Put forward by Diplomant: Dinko Atanasov Born in: Yambol, Bulgaria Oral examination: 06. July 2016 Precision mass measurements for studies of nucleosynthesis via the rapid neutron-capture process Penning-trap mass measurements of neutron-rich cadmium and caesium isotopes Prof. Dr. Klaus Blaum Referees: PD Dr. Adriana P´alffy Zusammenfasung Obwohl die Theorie ¨uber die schnelle Neutronenanlagerung (r-Prozess) schon vor mehr als 55 Jahren entwickelt wurde, wird ¨uber den exakten Ort im Universum an dem dieser Prozess stattfindet noch rege debattiert. Theoretische Studien sagen voraus, dass der Verlauf des r-Prozesses gepr¨agtwird durch ¨außerstneutronenreiche Materie mit sehr asymmetrischen Proton-zu-Neutron Verh¨altnissen.Die aktuellen Kenntnisse ¨uber Eigenschaften dieser neutro- nenreichen Isotope, die dazu geeignet sind als Eingangsdaten f¨urStudien ¨uber den r-Prozess herangezogen zu werden, sind nur unzureichend oder gar nicht vorhanden. Die grundlegen- den Eigenschaften der Kerne, wie Bindungsenergie, Halbwertszeiten und Reaktionsquerschnitt spielen eine wichtige Rolle in den theoretischen Simulationen und k¨onnendiese beeinflussen oder sogar zu drastisch alternativen Ergebnissen f¨uhren. Um diese Theorien mit gemesse- nen Daten zu untermauern und die Produktion neutronenreicher Isotope zu verbessern, wurde an Forschungseinrichtungen wie ISOLDE am CERN, ein g¨anzlich bemerkenswerter Aufwand betrieben. Das Ziel dieser Dissertation ist es die experimentelle Arbeit zu beschreiben, welche n¨otigwar, um die Pr¨azisionsmassenmessungender neutronenreichen Isotope Cadmium (129−131Cd) und C¨asium(132;146−148Cs) zu erm¨oglichen. Die Messungen wurden an der Iso- topenfabrik ISOLDE am CERN mithilfe des aus vier Ionenfallen bestehenden Massenspek- trometers ISOLTRAP durchgef¨uhrt.

As a way to measure the influence of heavy metals on wildlife with mass spectrometric techniques, some researchers use animal food enriched in specific cadmium isotopes . These experiments work by exposing the animals to a diet enriched in 106 Cd and/or other stable isotopes of metals (for example, 65 Cu and/or 62 Ni) for a period of time. Depending on the purpose of the experiment, the residence time of the food in the gut is determined and isotopic compositions of the gut and/or feces are measured via inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). This information is used to measure bio-uptake (absorption and incorporation of a substance by living tissue) and accumulation rates of metals in an exposed animal [352, 353].

Douglas Hildebrand and Chicago Operations Office Anibal Taboas March 2007 Radiological and Chemical Fact Sheets to Support Health Risk Analyses for Contaminated Areas These fact sheets summarize health-related information for contaminants present in the environment as a result of past industrial activities and other releases. The objective is to provide scientific context for risk analyses to guide health protection measures. Geared toward an audience familiar with basic risk concepts, they were originally developed for the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Richland and Chicago Operations Offices to serve as an information resource for people involved in environmental programs. The initial set was expanded to address evolving homeland security concerns, and these 51 radiological and chemical fact sheets also serve as a scientific information resource for the public. Twenty-nine radionuclide-specific fact sheets have been prepared: ¾ Americium ¾ Iridium ¾ Selenium ¾ Cadmium ¾ Krypton ¾ Strontium ¾ Californium ¾ Neptunium ¾ Technetium ¾ Carbon-14 ¾ Nickel ¾ Thorium ¾ Cesium ¾ Plutonium ¾ Tin ¾ Chlorine ¾ Polonium ¾ Tritium ¾ Cobalt ¾ Potassium-40 ¾ Uranium ¾ Curium ¾ Protactinium ¾ Depleted uranium (DU) ¾ Europium ¾ Radium complements uranium
