ABSTRACT:
A process for the separation of one isotope from a mixture of isotopes and an apparatus for carrying out said process. The process comprises generating a beam of the atoms or molecules, introducing the beam into a laser cavity in such manner that the direction of the laser beam is substantially perpendicular to the direction of motion of the beam, irradiating the beam with a radiation adapted to being about the excitation only of the isotopic species to be separated, reflecting the laser beam back and forth between at least a pair of opposed sides of the laser cavity, such as between two mirrors opposite and parallel to each other which are located on these sides, for deflecting the desired isotopic species, and collecting said species.
