    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Pertains to the evaluation of the homogeneity of Gd distribution within gadolinium fuel blends, and the determination of the Gd[2]O[3] content in sintered fuel pellets of Gd[2]O[3]+UO[2] from 1% to 10%, by measurements of gadolinium (Gd) and uranium (U) elements using ICP-AES.
