Original Abstract

In this paper two new analytical approaches are suggested to determine the relative content of uranium in the studied specimen.To employ this task an orthogonal double-pulse (DP) LIBS setup was utilized in order to reach high sensitivity, maintaining low crater diameter, subsequently enabling high spatial resolution chemical mapping.This work aims to study the possibilities of LIBS concerning the detection of uranium precipitated in sandstones. The main challenge in uranium detection is its complex emission spectrum with very high density of spectral lines.
