Description

Some observations on the disposition of barium and strontium fission products in the UO2 kernels of irradiated HTR fuel particles are reported. The particles were examined by electron-probe microanalysis (EPMA) and by a nod-dispersive X-ray analysing attachment to a scanning electron microscope (NDA). In the fuel-temperature range 1200-17000C it is found that there is a marked difference in the behaviour of barium and strontium in UO2. (Auth.)
