AbstractAbstract
[en] One of 12 beryllium tiles on a top rail limiter in the Impurity Study Experiment (ISX-B) tokamak was intentionally made radioactive. The migration of the radioactivity due to melting, ablation, and general excoriation of the radioactive tile was studied. Several hundred milligrams of material from the radioactive tile were spread to the other tiles over the course of the experiment, which consisted of more than 3000 tokamak shots. A small amount of activity was found on the bottom of the tokamak vacuum vessel. The distribution of activity on the other limiter tiles showed a marked radially inward directivity, although all of the tiles received some activity. The possibility that some of the activity was the result of photo- and electro-excitation by runaway electrons cannot be ruled out but probably cannot account for the bulk of the effect
