X-ray chemical monitoring of uranium oxide

Scientists at Los Alamos National Laboratory have recently reported the X-ray analysis of uranium oxideα-U3O8 samples under controlled temperatures and humidities. They found that the combined use of powder X-ray diffraction and U L-III EXAFS can help in identifying temporal changes of uranium oxide stored for a number of years. For more information, see the paper, "Oxidation and Hydration of U3O8 Materials Following Controlled Exposure to Temperature and Humidity", A. L. Tamasi et al., Anal. Chem. 87, 4210 (2015).
