The fission product 90Sr (T1/2 = 28.90 a) is a radiotoxic trace nuclide produced with high yield in the nuclear fuel cycle and weapons tests. State-of-the-art radiometric measurements are time-consuming and cumbersome, hence, accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) has the potential to be a fast and highly sensitive alternative, especially for large quantities.
In a collaboration between the University of Vienna and University of Cologne, a new advanced ion cooler for ion beams with high emittance, e.g. SrF3−, was designed and built. Performance tests, including residence time measurements, have been conducted at a dedicated test bench in Vienna. Simultaneously, a simple and fast chemical preparation for Sr in soil samples for large amounts of samples is worked on. The performance tests and sample preparation will be presented.
