Abstract

Rapid chemical separation of berkelium is essential in order to measure the unknown isotope 252Bk. An anion exchange system of mineral acid and methanol was examined. An elution curve of Bk was obtained using 250Bk produced by the 248Cm+18O system and the 251Bk activity could be measured in the preliminary experiments. The whole chemical separation was completed within 30 minutes.
