Uranium Enrichment

["McCormick, Luke I NWD02" <g6hxxlim@nwd02.usace.army.mil>]

I am trying to find a good text on Uranium enrichment. In particular, I am
interested in older gas diffusion systems and am most interested in the
contaminant carryover (U-234 activity per percent U-235 enrichment, how this
differed at various facilities/processes) What other contaminants could be
expected and what are their sources, expected concentrations, etc?  Is there
a production facility 'signature' that could be reliably seen in this? Any
advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
