Acquisition of State-of-the-Art Alpha Counting Equipment

该提案要求获得50%的支持， 在地球化学中使用的α计数设备， 冰川水文环境工程 新罕布什尔州大学的研究项目。的 设备将允许精确的低水平测量 钚的天然和人工放射性同位素， 铀、镭、钋、锕、钍、钚和 在天然水、冰和水的年代测定和示踪研究中的铅 沉积物地球科学系和土木工程系 工程师们提供了实验室空间， 将提供其余50%的设备采购费用。

This proposal requests 50% support for the acquisition of alpha counting equipment to be utilized in geochemical, glaciological, hydrological and environmental engineering research programs at the University of New Hampshire. The equipment will allow precise low level measurements of the natural and artificial radioactive isotopes of plutonium, uranium, radium, polonium, actinium, thorium, protactinium and lead for dating and tracer studies in natural water, ice and sediments. The departments of earth sciences and civil engineering are providing laboratory space and the university will provide the remaining 50% of the equipment purchase costs.
