Abstract

Radiochemistry can be an important tool in studies of nuclear reactions induced by radioactive ion beams (RIBs). RIB intensities are typically 103–105 particles/s leading to very low reaction rates. The sensitivity of radiochemical methods and the ability to uniquely determine the atomic properties of the reaction products offer substantial advantages. The application of radiochemical techniques to study the fusion of 9,11Li with 70Zn and the “inverse fission” of uranium is described.
