2. Depleted uranium - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depleted_uranium

   Natural uranium contains about 0.72% 235 U. Depleted uranium has lower mass fractions—up to three times less—of 235 U and 234 U than natural uranium. Since 238 U has a much longer half-life than the lighter isotopes, DU is about 40% less radioactive than natural uranium.

   Because of this, a light-water reactor will require that the 235 U isotope be concentrated in its uranium fuel, as enriched uranium, generally between 3% and 5% 235 U by weight (the by-product from this process enrichment process is known as depleted uranium, and so consisting mainly of 238 U, chemically pure).

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depleted_uranium_hexafluoride

   The concept of depleted and enriched uranium emerged nearly 150 years after the discovery of uranium by Martin Klaproth in 1789. In 1938, two German physicists Otto Hahn and Fritz Strassmann had made the discovery of the fission of the atomic nucleus of the 235 U isotope, which was theoretically substantiated by Lise Meitner, Otto Robert Frisch and in parallel with them Gottfried von Droste ...
