4th TRAKULA graduate seminar - “Radiochemistry of the Actinides”

When: 21.-23.05.2012
Where: Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz
Institut für Kernchemie
Fritz-Strassmann-Weg 2
55128 Mainz
Germany


Program:

We will have a couple of invited talks covering the following topics: Partitioning (A. Geist, KIT), Radiochemistry of the Actinides (V. Brendel, HZDR), The history of the discovery of nuclear fission (N. Trautmann, JGU) and Nuclear forensics (K. Lützenkirchen, ITU). In addition to that, we plan some practical laboratory exercises in nuclear chemistry and a visit of the research reactor TRIGA Mainz.

Important Notes:

  • Since you will enter controlled areas you need to bring your dosemeter and your “Strahlenpass” (if you possess one) with you.
  • Usually we have at least one status report (25+5 min) from every project partner. In order to complete the Workshop program, please let Klaus Eberhard(18) know asap what other contributions are planned from your side.
