Description
Nickel specimens doped with several levels of 10B were irradiated in the Fast Flux Test Facility(FFTF) for the purpose of examining the applicability of boron addition to the study of helium production effects. It was found that the boron has its chemical and transmutative effects, the former suppressing and the latter enhancing void nucleation. It seems that reliable estimation of helium effects is possible by well designed experiments separating some side effects of boron from its transmutation effects. (author)
