A Mass Spectrograph for the Analysis of Fission Product Mixtures

From introduction: "The analysis of mixtures of fission products with a mass spectrograph offers certain advantages. A chemical separation of the fission products found in the solution at Hanford is not necessary with the mass spectrograph technique. A sample of the mixtures can be placed on the sample holder and then the sample holder is mounted in the mass spectrograph. This reduces the amount of handling of the active solutions to one relatively simple and short operation. The health hazards involved in the analysis can be further reduced by increasing the efficiency of the spectrograph as much as possible, thus making possible an analysis of a sample of lower total activity. The mass spectrograph described here is an attempt to realize the advantages pointed out above. Particular attention has been given to increasing the increasing the efficiency of the instrument."
