Actinium is an elusive element with untamed properties and represents a peculiar case in
the periodic table, as its isotopes are all radioactive, the longest-lived one having only a 22 …

Research on actinide materials, both basic and applied, has been greatly advanced by the
general techniques available from high-intensity photon beams from x-ray synchrotron …

A series of thorium (IV)-imido complexes was synthesized and characterized. Extensive
experimental and computational comparisons with the isostructural cerium (IV)-imido …

Progress toward the closure of the nuclear fuel cycle can be achieved if satisfactory
separation strategies for the chemoselective speciation of the trivalent actinides from the …

The deacidification of highly acidic industrial wastewater, such as the spent fuel
reprocessing feed liquid, is of great significance for the smooth progress of the subsequent …

The physicochemical properties of lanthanide (III) ions are directly linked to the structure of
the surrounding ligands. Rapid ligand exchange prohibits direct structure–property …

A major chemical challenge facing implementation of 225Ac in targeted alpha therapy—an
emerging technology that has potential for treatment of disease—is identifying an 225Ac …

The radionuclides 225Ac3+ and 213Bi3+ possess favorable physical properties for targeted
alpha therapy (TAT), a therapeutic approach that leverages α radiation to treat cancers. A …

Coordination chemistry trends across the periodic table are often difficult to probe
experimentally due to limitations in finding a versatile but consistent chelating platform that …

The use of α-emitting radionuclides in targeted alpha therapy (TAT) holds great potential for
treatment of human diseases, such as cancer, due to the short pathlength and high potency …
