Improvements to Americium-241 processing can increase yield, decrease the amount of waste generated, and reduce the radiological dose workers receive.

Improving Large-Scale Domestic Production of Americium-241, a Critical Component in Smoke Detectors and Nuclear Batteries

Researchers explore the effects of radiation and harsh chemicals to optimize americium-241 production.

Two synchronized flashes of ultrafast X-rays interact with a molecule. The electrons ionized from the molecule are detected with an energy spectrometer, providing observation of the interaction between the two particles at the attosecond timescale.

Action! Attosecond X-rays Produce Ultrafast Movies

Researchers use an X-ray free-electron laser to film electrons using finely tuned pairs of attosecond flashes.
