Inkjet droplets of radioactive material enable quick, precise testing at NIST
Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology have developed a technique called cryogenic decay energy spectrometry capable of detecting single radioactive decay events from tiny material samples and simultaneously identifying the atoms involved. In time, the technology could replace characterization tasks that have taken months and could support rapid, accurate radiopharmaceutical development and used nuclear fuel recycling, according to an article published on July 8 by NIST.

Differential neutron scattering cross sections from 6Li and 7Li had been measured at some energies between 6.82 and 9.80 MeV. The experimental technique and problems of data determination are discussed. Furthermore, a comparison with other experimental results in the incident energy region from 6 to 14 MeV is presented. Some remarks are given concerning deviations in the experimental results obtained by different groups.
