This book summarizes new instrumental and analytical techniques developed for uranium analysis and characterization. It provides readers with basics on the chemistry of uranium and its compounds, describes the nuclear fuel cycle, and discusses the relevant modern analytical techniques (such as ICPMS, ICPAES, laser ablation, XRF, and TIMS). The book presents a detailed discussion of the main industrial applications (ore mining and the nuclear fuel cycle). It covers environmental issues and the means of monitoring the uranium content in air, water, and soil as well as human exposure pathways and assessment by bioassays. The role of nuclear forensics in safeguards and non-proliferation applications and state-of-the-art techniques is described in detail.
