A method of processing a nuclear material for use as a nuclear fuel in a nuclear reactor is disclosed herein. The nuclear material includes a complex isotope vector including a plurality of isotopes including a targeted isotope and a non-targeted isotope. The method can include: determining a wavelength of electromagnetic radiation based, at least in part, on the targeted isotope; emitting a beam of electromagnetic radiation including the determined wavelength towards the nuclear material; separating, via the emitted beam of electromagnetic radiation, the nuclear material into a first stream and a second stream; enriching, via the emitted beam of electromagnetic radiation, a concentration of the targeted isotope to a predetermined concentration; and dispositioning, via a sensitivity to the determined wavelength, the enriched concentration of the targeted isotope to the first stream of the nuclear material; and dispositioning, via a lack of sensitivity to the determined wavelength, the non-targeted isotope to the second stream of the nuclear material.

The present invention relates to a mobile X-ray device, comprising: a housing with an X-ray source arranged therein, a sensor system comprising one or more sensors for aligning the X-ray source to an object to be scanned and/or detecting at least one extrinsic object in a predefined area in a vicinity of the X-ray beam of the X-ray source; a processor unit comprising determining the alignment of the X-ray source and the object to be scanned based on signals received from the sensor system; image acquisition for generating an X-ray image; activating a blockage signal for the mobile X-ray device based on signals received from the sensor system; and an interface for outputting the generated X-ray image and/or information; wherein image acquisition is blocked, if the sensor system signals one of the following: at least one extrinsic object is detected within the predefined area; lack of alignment between the X-ray source and the object to be scanned.
