*I don’t understand how the depletion mechanism works.* Fission preferentially occurs in one isotope over the others. This isotope is depleted in relation to the others.
For example, Ni58 undergoes fission more often than do NI60, Ni61, Ni62, and Ni64. In slide titled "Nickel Transmutation SUS304 alloy: 8% Nickel, 18% Chromium, 74% Iron …used in a high-temperature alloy+H20 Hydrogen-generating system", this slide shows as follows: Ni58 drops as a percentage from 68% to 42% in nickel isotope abundance. This means that Ni58 fissions into lighter elements more than the other nickel isotopes. On Sat, Aug 10, 2013 at 1:39 PM, Arnaud Kodeck <arnaud.kod...@lakoco.be>wrote: > ** > > I’ve read the slides.
