Abstract

Several binary systems of uranium with lighter elements (atomic numbers of 6 to 26) have been analyzed in an ARL microprobe analyzer using conventional X-ray techniques and also by sample-current measurements. The techniques of the analysis, the parameters employed, and the results obtained are discussed.
