“…In these cases, disregard of the wave length shift, and of a change in efficiency of emission, can result in serious errors in analytical results, (1,3,6) for the radiochemical determination of cerium in fission product mixtures depend either in part, or entirely, on precipitation for separating cerium from other fission products. If precipitation alone is used, as many as nine precipitations (two as the fluoride, three as the hydroxide, two as the iodate, and twro as the oxalate) may be required to ensure a radiochemically pure product.…”
