专利汇可以提供Method of distinguishing between fuel and/or breeder elements intended for or inserted in a nuclear reactor专利检索,专利查询,专利分析的服务。并且A method of distinguishing between fuel and/or breeder elements intended for or inserted in a nuclear reactor, the fuel and/or breeder materials being contained in a graphite covering or matrix. Before the fuel and/or breeder elements are introduced into the reactor, chemical substances are added to the carbon of the covering or matrix. After oxidizing, these chemical substances are slightly diffusible and at most negligibly affect the neutron flow of the reactor; their spectral lines are undisturbed by the carbon bands and are capable of being excited by a laser pulse. The chemical substances are introduced into the graphite of the covering or matrix at such a concentration, that the macroscopic neutron absorption cross section remains small. The fuel and/or breeder elements are irradiated by laser pulses in such a way, that the plasma focus formed thereby is located in the optical beam path of a device known per se and suitable for spectrum analysis.,下面是Method of distinguishing between fuel and/or breeder elements intended for or inserted in a nuclear reactor专利的具体信息内容。

7. A method according to claim 1, in which the concentration of said chemical substances added to said graphite is not over 50ppm.
8. A method according to claim 1, in which the intensity of the radiation of said plasma formed by means of said irradiation with laser pulses is increased by introducing said fuel elements intended for use in said reactor into an atmosphere of inert gas under high pressure.
9. A method according to claim 8, in which said inert gas under high pressure is helium under a pressure of at least 10 atmospheres absolute.
10. A method according to claim 1, in which the plasma in said focus is postheated by spikes formed with the laser in unspoiled condition at intervals measured in Mu sec.
11. A method according to claim 1, in which a plurality of said chemical elements are added, all combinations of said added chemical substances being used for said spectroscopic analysis.
12. A method of characteristically distinguishing between breeder elements intended for use in a nuclear reactor, said breeder elements being held in a graphite covering, which includes the steps of: introducing into the graphite of said covering chemical substances which are only slightly diffusible and at most negligibly affect the neutron flow of the reactor, the spectral lines of said chemical substances being undisturbed by the carbon bands and capable of being excited by a laser pulse, said chemical substances being introduced into said graphite at such a concentration that the macroscopic neutron absorption cross section remains small; and irradiating said breeder elements intended for use in said reactor with laser pulses so as to form a plasma focus and locating the same in the optical beam path of a suitable spectrum analysis device.
13. A method of characteristically distinguishing between a combination of fuel elements and breeder elements intended for use in a nuclear reactor, said combination of fuel elements and breeder elements being held in a graphite covering, which includes the steps of: introducing into the graphite of said covering chemical substances which are only slightly diffusible aNd at most negligibly affect the neutron flow of the reactor, the spectral lines of said chemical substances being undisturbed by the carbon bands and capable of being excited by a laser pulse, said chemical substances being introduced into said graphite at such a concentration that the macroscopic neutron absorption cross section remains small; and irradiating said combination of fuel elements and breeder elements intended for use in said reactor with laser pulses so as to form a plasma focus and locating the same in the optical beam path of a suitable spectrum analysis device.
