Description

The specific problems raised by transuranium element irradiation experiments, for target preparation, during the irradiation and in the course of target dismantling and transport after irradiation are examined. Experience gained in experimental reactors had led to the development of a specific device known as PANICO which is now standardized for all transuranium element targets in experimental reactors

Abstract (French)

On examine successivement les problemes specifiques que posent les experiences d'irradiations de transuraniens: pour la preparation des cibles, pendant l'irradiation proprement dite, et au cours du demantelement et du transport des cibles apres l'irradiation. L'experience acquise dans les reacteurs experimentaux a permis de mettre au point un dispositif specifique denomme PANICO qui est maintenant normalise pour toutes les cibles de transuraniens en reacteur experimental
