Description
The behavior of plutonium and fission products such as neodymium, palladium, molybdenum, xenon and cesium in thermally stabilized uranium-plutonium mixed carbide fuel pellets irradiated up to the average burnup of about 4.4% FIMA in JMTR was investigated. It was confirmed that all elements mentioned above showed radial distributions corresponding to the burning profile in the pellet. The segregation of plutonium by the precipitation of the sesquicarbide was observed. Furthermore, it was suggested that some fraction of neodymium, palladium, molybdenum and cesium might be segregated in the carbide fuel. (author)
