Identification of deuterium and tritium isotopes in water by microwave radioscopy

摘要

For the first time, the microwave radiation spectra were recorded for light water H2O, heavy water D2O, and D2O containing a small amount of T2O. The spectra were analyzed by a special program on a PC. The measurement results showed that not only can the proposed method distinguish between the substances by composition or concentration, but also it can determine the presence of heavy and superheavy hydrogen isotopes in normal water.
