Enrichment of Tritium by Thermal Diffusion and Measurement of Dated Antarctic Snow Samples
A thermal diffusion column allows a recovery of 99 ± 1 percent of the tritium originally contained in about 50 liters at standard temperature and pressure of hydrogen gas in a final volume of 3.8 liters over a 2-day period. After a tenfold enrichment by electrolysis, a tritium concentration of 10 -1...
