Exploring the decay of plutonium 241


Assignment:

Question 1. Pu-241 is produced from neutron absorption by Pu-240 (which is produced by neutron absorption by Pu-239). Calculate the fractional in-growth of Am-241 from Pu-241 (i.e. number ratio Am-241/Pu-241) from time = 0 to 200 years. Pu-241 is the parent and Am-241 is the daughter.
