AbstractA method for obtaining156, 155, 154m2, 154, 153Tb radiotracers by the irradiation of a europium oxide target of natural isotopic composition by 27 MeV α-particles is proposed. Terbium can be efficiently separated from bulk of europium by the reduction of the latter by zinc in an acidic solution and precipitation as EuSO4. The optimum Zn/Eu3+and (NH4)2SO4/Eu3+molar ratios are 20 and 3, respectively. Terbium is additionally purified from europium and gadolinium by extraction chromatography using LN Resin. It is demonstrated that optimum separation is attained in 0.6 M HNO3. The Tb/Eu separation coefficient was ~5·105. The yield of terbium was about 90%. Time of all steps was 1.5–2 h. The proposed procedure makes it possible to obtain no carrier added terbium radiotracers.

Electrical Resistivities

The electrical resistivities of lithium -6 and lithium of natural isotopic composition have been studied between 4°K and room temperature. In addition, their absolute resistivities have been carefully compared at room temperature. These measurements show that the effect of ionic mass on electrical resistivity agrees with simple theoretical predictions, namely, that the properties of the conduction electrons in lithium do not depend on the mass of the ions, and that the characteristic lattice frequencies for the two pure isotopes are in the inverse ratio of the square roots of their ionic masses. A comparison with the specific heat results of Martin (1959, 1960), where the simple theory is found not to hold, indicates the possibility that anharmonic effects are present which affect the specific heat but not the electrical resistivity.

The magnetic properties of single crystals of synthetic diamond and crystals of silicon carbide were studied. High-purity samples of diamonds synthesized with HPHT and CVD technologies were used. The crystals of silicon carbide were grown by sublimation and industrial technology. Along with samples with a natural isotopic composition, monoisotopic crystals of diamond (99.96% 12C and 99.96% 13C) and silicon carbide (99.993% of 28Si) were studied. On the basis of the data obtained, the diamagnetic susceptibility was determined and the concentration of paramagnetic centers and the content of the ferromagnetic component were evaluated. The results are discussed.

By X-rays, ultraviolet, and γ-radiation or by heating to more than 1850 °C in powdered or sintered boronnitride centres are produced, which give an EPR-spectrum with 10 lines a=7.8 ± 0.1 Gauss apart with g=2.0027 ± 0.0003 for BN of natural isotopic composition (81.17% 11B; 18.83% 10B), and a single line for 10BN enriched to 91% 10B. The spectra are analysed as built up from 4 systems of spectra, caused by surroundings of 3 boron atoms, 3, 2, 1, or 0 of which are 11B, each occuring with the proper probability. The intensity of the different systems was calculated by assuming GAussian line shape and equal | ψ (0) |2 and line width for 11B and 10B. It is possible, that the EPR is caused by impurity atoms on the places of N or in the centre of B3N3-rings. Other spectra caused in BN by X-rays or by neutrons in a pile are discussed elsewhere 3, 8.
