Irradiation of 235U in the OSIRIS reactor for the production of 99Mo, 131I and 133Xe radioisotopes
Description
The irradiation device is centered in a beryllium plug with a height roughly equal to that of the core. By using a target holder system, 3 targets can be placed in the irradiation site with a water circulation at a rate of approximately 7 m s-1. The handling is completely done underwater as well as for loading and unloading into the shipping container. This paper is reproduced under the explicit authorization of the Director General of the Institut National des Radioelements. (author). 3 figs
