  • Patent number: 12332388
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for determining 224Ra in a sediment by using a pulse ionization chamber emanometer, which belongs to the technical field of analysis and measurement. A pulse ionization chamber emanometer (PIC), a new emanometer, is used. Based on the half-life characteristics of different radon isotopes, one can separate the 220Rn activity from the total counts by dual counting. The resulting 220Rn measurement then can be used to determine the 224Ra activity in sediment according to the principle of secular radioactive equilibrium.

  • Patent number: 12318867
    Abstract: This application relates to a laser-plasma composite cladding head and a composite cladding method, and belongs to the field of surface processing of metallic materials. In the laser-plasma composite cladding head of this application, a ring laser beam is split into two half-ring laser beams through an upper roof lens to avoid a tungsten electrode. The two half-ring laser beams pass through a left 45° reflective lens to be coaxial with the tungsten electrode and then are integrated into a complete ring laser beam through a lower roof lens, thereby allowing a coaxial output of the ring laser beam and a plasma beam. This application integrates the advantages of laser cladding and plasma cladding and adopts coaxial compounding and synchronous powder-feeding.
