Who we are - What we do

Tasks

The Division of Nuclear Chemistry, founded in 1956, sees its main task in promoting nuclear, radio and radiation chemistry and the students, technicians and scientists working there. The focus should be on informing about new results and applications.

The maintenance of the exchange of ideas and experiences and the conveying of professional suggestions are carried out by:

     

  • conferences and lecture meetings
  • Working groups for scientific or technical processing of special areas
  • Participation in GDCh events
  • Publications and monographs in the field of nuclear, radio and radiation chemistry
  • Courses on the safe handling of radioactive substances and radiation protection
  • Active interaction with domestic and foreign committees, associations and organizations in related fields

A key aspect is the promotion and safeguarding of sufficient research, teaching and training capacity in nuclear, radio and radiation chemistry. Contact list for teaching and training in nuclear chemistry - as of November 12th, 2020   ( pdf )

Focus of work

The Division of Nuclear Chemistry in the German Chemical Society represents the scientists and engineers who deal with radioactive substances and ionizing radiation in their work and use them for research, industry, medicine and teaching purposes. Your activities can be summarized in the following areas:

Basic research
- Chemistry of the heaviest elements
- actinide chemistry
- cosmochemistry
- radio analysis

Health and the environment
- nuclear chemistry in the life sciences (radiopharmacy)
- Isotope geochemistry
- Radiation protection and radioecology
- Nuclear forensics

energy
- repository research
- reactor chemistry
- tritium chemistry

Teaching, training and maintenance of skills

Board

The Board consists of the chairman, his deputy and up to five assessors, with universities, industry and research centers being represented. The Board is supported in an advisory capacity by an advisory board, in which student members also participate. more
