1.1 This test method covers the quantitative determination of the fraction of 235U in uranium using measurement of the 185.7 keV gamma ray produced during the decay of 235U.
1.2 This test method is applicable to items containing homogeneous uranium-bearing materials of known chemical composition in which the compound is considered infinitely thick with respect to 185.7 keV gamma rays.
1.3 This test method can be used for the entire range of 235U fraction, from depleted (0.2 % 235U) to very highly enriched (97.5 % 235U).
1.4 Measurement of items that have not reached secular equilibrium between 238U and 234Th, may not produce the stated bias when low-resolution detectors are used with the computational method listed in Appendix B.
1.5 This standard may involve hazardous materials, operations, and equipment. This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
