ENGLISH ABSTRACT: An apparatus that generates and deflect silver-109 atoms with an inhomogeneous and
homogeneous magnetic field was constructed. The experimental results found using this
apparatus were used to make a recommendation, to the idea of removing silver-110 atoms from
the helium fluid of Pebble Bed Modular Reactor (PBMR) with an inhomogeneous magnetic field
based on the Stern-Gerlach principle. It is shown that experimental results corresponded well
with the theoretical predictions. The apparatus was also used for a practical for a course for
mechanical engineers in modern physics.
