Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

Radiochimica Acta publishes research on the behavior and applications of radioactive elements and materials. This includes studies on radiation shielding properties of various materials, such as ceramics, epoxy composites, and glasses, using techniques like gamma-ray attenuation measurements and theoretical calculations. The journal also covers the analysis and extraction of radionuclides from environmental samples, including uranium, plutonium, and radium, from water, sediment, and dust. Furthermore, research on the synthesis and characterization of materials for radionuclide sorption and decontamination, as well as the development of radiotracers for imaging and nuclear applications, are featured.
