Extract

The electronic charge states and site symmetries of the radioactive ions incorporated in nuclear waste forms are of considerable importance in determining the physical and chemical properties of these materials. An in situ characterization of these ions is, unfortunately, often difficult – especially when a mixture of charge states and local crystal symmetries exist. The application of Mbssbauer spectroscopy represents a powerful technique for obtaining solid state chemical information.
