Article Synopsis
- The study compares radio-chronometric ages of four plutonium-certified reference materials with differing chemical forms and isotopic compositions to evaluate current age dating techniques for nuclear materials.
- Modern analytical methods, including various mass spectrometers, were employed across different laboratories, highlighting variations in age determination precision and the need for standardized isotopic references.
- Results suggest that while trace level analytical labs may have slightly higher uncertainties compared to bulk sample labs, both can achieve similar model purification ages using established isotope measurement techniques.
