Description

The results are reported of an investigation into the practicability of the implantation of fission fragments from a 252Cf source and the use of this introduced radioactivity for wear measurements. Details of a series of such measurements on lathe tools are given. These show that small amounts of wear and abrasion can be determined in this way upto some days after the end of irradiation depending on the method of measurement. (U.K.)
