[ RadSafe ] Salsman's uranium trioxide gas proof

[Otto Raabe]

There was no plutonium dioxide gas because plutonium dioxide has no vapor 
pressure at the experimental temperatures. Even a lonely single molecule of 
plutonium dioxide behaves like a particle rather than a gas at temperatures 
below 2400 degrees Celsius. Such tiny particles are readily collected with 
simple air filters.
