Uranium Concentration Measurements of Human Blood Samples Using CR-39

The aim of this project is to determine the concentrations  of uranium concentration in human blood in some governorates of Iraq for (workers in radiation field in ministry of science and technology and non occupational workers in radiation field) and to find the relationship between the uranium concentration with the number of working years and with the type of human gender.The nuclear reaction used as source of nuclear fission fragment is U-235 (n,f), obtain by the bombardment of U-235 with thermal neutrons from     (Am- Be) source which has a flux o

Preparation of Anorthite from Local Raw Iraqi Materials

  The study concern with using local Kaolin of Duekhla to prepare Anorthite material. The sequence of study started with washing, chemical treatment and sedimentation to produce a fine powder by passing the product through a special sieve (less than 20 µm).then after this step dividing the fine powder product into two groups, the first group with out heat treatment and the second with heat treatment (calcinations) at 400 oC.
