Angereichert und abgereichert – macht es einen Unterschied?
- Abstract
The article "Enriched and depleted - does it make a difference?" is about the handling of uranium in chemical research. It is pointed out that the activity of uranium, whether depleted or enriched, does not show a significant difference. The activity of uranium-238 (depleted) is about 12,000 Bq per gram, while uranium-235 (enriched) has an activity of about 80,000 Bq per gram. It is emphasized that the radiation from uranium is low and weak compared to other natural radioactive elements. The authors argue that the image of nuclear research should be improved, as chemistry mainly focuses on electron shells and not on atomic nuclei.
