2) radionuclide amount according to rough estimate such as increases at the radioactive nucleus of magnitude in the radionuclide solution The natural stabilisation element of element, carries out Radiochemical Separation and removes decay daughter, is measured in solution and radiated using high-precision isotope mass spectrometry Property nucleic and natural stabilisation element ratio R1
3) solution is deposited after a period of time t, Radiochemical Separation is carried out again and removes decay daughter, using the same position of high accuracy The ratio R of radionuclide and natural stabilisation element in quality spectrometry solution2;Resting period t therein is more than the radioactivity The 0.3% of nucleic half-life period;
4) its half-life period is calculated by following formula:
It is an advantage of the invention that:
1st, the present invention uses mass spectrographic method, avoided the processes such as ratio, the efficiency correction of radioactive ray point there may be Uncertainty.By the high accuracy analysis to Long-lived Radionuclides and other isotopic ratios, its half-life period is measured, is put The dependence to radioactive assays has been taken off, the degree of accuracy of part radionuclide halflife measurement can be improved.With reference to parent nucleus Accurate quantitative result, can be applied to the accurate calibration of long-lived radioactivity source degree activity, uncertainty level can by 0.6% with On be down to less than 0.3% level, the uncertainty to most of nucleic half-life measurement is better than 0.5%, preferably can as little as 0.1% Level.
2nd, the present invention is few to part Long-lived Radionuclides sample for analysis amount, and measuring technology is not related to activity, penetrated The radioassays such as line.It is high based on mass spectrographic method of testing sensitivity, it is more than more than 10 years Radionuclide analysis for half-life period and tests Radioactive assays consumption is considerably less than with sample operation amount, personnel's radiation risk and testing cost is reduced.
Embodiment
Below with151Sm analyze and229Exemplified by Th, its half-life period assay method and calculation formula are introduced.
Embodiment 1:Half-life period method is determined without the isotopic ratio of chemical sample preparation
229Th is233U decay daughter, determines the fields such as year, core test in geology division of history into periods U-Th and is used widely.229Th Main to occur alpha-decay, half-life period is 7880 ± 120 years, and relative uncertainty degree is 1.5%.
Buying229Th standard liquids (or from233Extracted in U solution229Th) about 8 × 10-7G, addition230Th/232Th is about 0.1 Thorium enriched isotope solutions (wherein232Th is about 4 × 10-6G) and U500 isotope abundances standard liquid (235U/238U= 0.999698) about 4 × 10-6G, about 15g is diluted to by solution uranium, thorium mixed solution, and the solution is used into hot surface MALDI-MS Analyzed, used235U/238U=0.999698 corrections Th mass discrimination influence, determines Th isotopes229Th/232Th ratios Value R1, cooling 6 years after again by the solution use hot surface MALDI-MS, and with same uranium isotope ratio correction Th quality Discriminate against effects measurement Th isotopes229Th/232Th ratio Rs2, byCalculate Th half-life period.In half-life period In calculating, R1And R2The uncertainty of the correction factor of isotopic ratio measurement is cancelled out each other, and the uncertainty of measurement result is main The experimental standard deviation (being better than 6e-6) measured from isotopic ratio, this method pair is thought in initial analysis229Th half-life period surveys It is about 0.78% to measure uncertainty.
