Conclusions 1. A series of in-reactor tests was performed on a sample used to study radiation creep in 00X16H15M3B steel, XHM1 chrome-nickel
alloy, the zirconium based alloys é110 and é635, and the vanadium-based alloy BTX8. The radiation creep modulus (in units
of Pa−1·(displacements/atom)−1 equals 1.7·10−11 for 00X16H15M3B steel, 4.6·10−11 for XHM alloy with fluence up to 2.3·1020 cm−2 and 1.6·10−11 for a fluence above 1·1021 cm−2, (4.6–4.9)·10−11 for é110 alloy, and 1.8·10−11 for é635 alloy. For the alloy BTX8, at stresses below half the yield point and t=450°C, the modulus equals 3.3·10−12 Pa−1·(displacements/atom)−1. At a higher stress, the deformation rate of the alloy increases progressively.
2. In the investigation of the temperature dependence of in-reactor creep of the alloy é110, it was found that at 350–370°C
and higher, the thermal creep makes the predominant contribution to deformation. In the experimental range 370–455°C, the
thermal activation energy of in-reactor creep was determined to be 36 ± 8 kcal/(g·atom). At temperatures below 350°C the creep
of the alloy é110 is a temperature-independent radiation-stimulated process. 3. In the case of tests of zirconium alloys,
a previously unobserved phenomenon of periodic rapid deformation of the material against the background of creep at stresses
even well below the yield point of the irradiated material was discovered. The effect was manifested at a temperature of about
230°C. As the temperature increases up to 290°C and higher, no plastic movements are observed.

The solidification of partially evaporated bottoms of RBMK and VVER with salt concentration 500–650 g/liter by compositional
binders consisting of Portland cement and silicic additives – aerosil, microsilica, opoka, silicic acid, liquid glass, and
diatomite is examined. The additions were used to obtain matrices that satisfy the requirements of safe storage of cemented
radwastes. The partition coefficients of 137Cs in partially evaporated bottoms are determined for all additives studied. The most effective additive for solidification
of partially evaporated bottoms of VVER is diatomite. Matrices with diatomite have strength 50–81 kg/cm2, the rate of leaching of 137Cs ~ 10–3–10–4 g/(cm2·day) and the fill with respect to salts reaches 20.9 wt.%. On the solidification of partially evaporated RBMK bottoms the
most effective hardening additives are aerosil and microsilica and the most effective sorbing additives are bentonite, opoka,
and diatomite. The matrices so obtained have strength 59–93 kg/cm2, 137Cs leach rate ~ 10–3–10–4 g/(cm2·day) and contain to 25.1 wt.% salts. 相似文献

graphite wastes in the Al-TiO2-C system are presented. The 137Cs and 90Sr leaching rate, which is determined for samples synthesized from a charge with real irradiated graphite from an AM research
reactor, does not exceed 10−6 g/(cm2·day) at the 28th day.

The characteristics of sodium permeation through graphite and the accompanying swelling of the graphite are examined for the
central rotating column of a BN-600 reactor.
The sodium transport parameters when sodium comes into contact with graphite at 350–500°C for up to 400 h are determined experimentally.
Under these conditions, the permeation parameter is (0.13–1.3)·10−11 m2/sec, which corresponds to an effective diffusion coefficient (0.2–2)·10−11 m2/sec. The ratio of the increment to the graphite volume and the sodium mass there is ∼0.85.

A method is presented for calculating the fraction of90Sr included in fuel particles in soil. Data concerning the change in forms of the occurrence of90Sr in different soils in the 30-km zone, at different distances from the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, were used to obtain
the kinetic characteristics of its leaching: the first-order rate constant and the normalized rate of solution. Depending
on the direction and distance from the nuclear power plant, the first-order leaching rate constant varies from 3·10−5 to 2·10−3 days−1 and the normalized rate of solution of the fuel matrix varies from 1·10−5 to 6.1·10−4. It was not found possible to clearly identify the influence of the distance from the nuclear power plant on the leaching
rate in the northern and western sectors. In contrast, in the southerly and south-easterly directions a clear tendency was
observed for the leaching rate to increase with increasing distance from the nuclear power plant.

The results of investigations of semiconductor detectors on the basis of epitaxial layers of gallium arsenide for detecting
x rays and low-energy radiation are examined. It is shown that epitaxial layers ranging in thickness from 60 to 300 μm with
current carrier density ≤5·1013 cm−3 and electron mobility ≥6000 cm2/(V·sec) at 300 K hold promise for such detectors.
A new type of photovoltaic x-ray detector based on the epitaxial structures p+-n-ni-n+ GaAs is described. Such detectors possess high charge collection efficiency with zero bias at room temperature and can operate
in two regimes — counting and current integration — and will substantially expand the dynamical range of image formation when
used in scanning systems.

A statistical analysis is performed of the results on the determination of the critical neutron fluence in MR, SM-2, and BOR-60
with different irradiation temperature. It is shown that the critical neutron fluence depends not only on the irradiation
temperature but also, and to an even greater extent, on the radiation composition factor (ratio of the neutron and γ-ray flux
densities). Thus the critical neutron fluence for irradiation at 600°C in MR (radiation composition factor 0.13) is 17·1021 cm−2 and in SM-2 (radiation composition factor 0.1) 11·1021 cm−2 at the same temperature. When the same graphite is irradiated in the region of the outer corner of a working block of RBMK,
where the radiation composition factor is 0.55, it is expected that the critical neutron fluence will be 31.7·1021 cm−2.
In summary, taking account of the effect of γ-radiation introduces substantial corrections: the experimental results obtained
in research reactors are found to be at least a factor of 2 too low. This gives hope of substantiating the substantial increase
in the service life of the RBMK graphite masonry. 3 figures, 8 references.

The results of investigations of the radiation creep of GR-280 graphite under a high compression load (about 15 MPa) after
irradiation in a BOR-60 reactor at 520°C to fast-neutron fluence 1.2·1022 cm−2 are presented. It is shown that the fluence dependence of the creep deformation, calculated using the standard relation as
the difference of the change in the dimensions of loaded and control samples, is anomalous. The linear thermal expansion coefficients
of loaded and control samples are found as functions of the neutron fluence under the same conditions. It is noted that the
linear thermal expansion coefficient of the samples irradiated under a load is much higher than that of the control samples.
Simmons' theorem is used to take account of the effect of a load on the linear thermal expansion coefficient, and the dimensional
changes of graphite exposed to radiation and the dependence of the true creep deformation on the neutron fluence are calculated.
It is shown that these dependences are close to linear in the experimental fluence range (0.4–1.2)·1022 cm−2.

Conclusions We have obtained for the first time the coefficients of excretion of241Am after chronic inhalation in personnel working at a radiochemical plant. We found that the level of excretion in the urine
is affected by different diseases, which result in the appearance of pronounced morphological changes in the liver tissue,
as established from pathological-anatomical data. The levels of excretion of241Am long after the start or termination of contact vary depending on the seriousness of the pathological processes in the liver
over the range (0.63–6.2)·10−5 day−1.
To obtain dosimetric estimates of the241Am content in the body according to the level of excretion in the urine, the coefficient 1.2·10−5 day−1, established for essentially healthy people, must be used.

A technology is proposed for reprocessing radioactive thermal-insulation materials and construction debris, produced at nuclear
power plants and radiochemical facilities, by melting the wastes in a induction furnace with a cold crucible.
The results show that the final volume of the thermal-insulation wastes can be decreased by a factor of 40 and that of the
construction debris by a factor of 2.5. The high hydrolytic stability of the final materials produced as a result of melting
(the 135Cs and 90Sr leach rate is less than 1·10−7 g/(cm2·day) allows these wastes subsequently to be stored and buried.
Recommendations are developed for an apparatus-technological scheme and for electrotechnical equipment for a commercial facility.

Experimental and computational methods for monitoring the fluence of fast neutrons on the most critical structural components
of the VVR-M reactor are presented. The dynamics of the accumulation of the fluence at the bases of the experimental channels
and the bearing lattice of the core over the last 10 years of reactor operation is presented. A method of preirradiation of
samples of the main structural alloy CAB-1 under real conditions in the VVR-M core was developed. This made it possible to
reach a fluence up to 2.5·1022 cm−2 on the samples. Over 40 years of reactor operation the maximum fluence on the structural components reached ∼1.7·1022 cm−2. The study of the mechanical properties of forcibly irradiated samples will make it possible to draw conclusions about the
remaining period of safe operation of the reactor. This is important for practical applications and is of economic value.

Radiation swelling (change of the unit-cell parameters) of reactor graphite and diamond is measured as a function of the perfection
of the crystal lattice. The initial powders are irradiated together with powders which have been exposed to an explosive wave
with nominal pressure ∼40 GPa. Such treatment results in up to 100% broadening of the diffraction lines. In addition, ultrasmall-grain
diamond is used. Irradiation is conducted in a BOR-60 reactor up to fluence 1·1022 cm−2 at 390 and 475°C. The investigation shows that the distortion of the crystal lattice and change in the size of crystallites
can decrease by factors of 1.6–5 the growth of the unit-cell parameters of graphite and diamond.

Computational results, obtained by analyzing possible schemes of nuclear transformations of each of four threshold fission
radiators 238U, 232Th, 237Np, and 231Pa, for fission ionization chambers are presented. The influence of the nuclear reactions (n, ƒ), (n, γ), and (n, 2n) on the characteristics of fission ionization chambers is taken into account in the nuclear transformation schemes for all
four radiators. The results are presented in the form of a dependence of the sensitivity of the fission ionization chambers
on the neutron fluence in the range 1021–1024 cm−2. The effect of 0.2 and 1 g/cm2 thick boron screens is examined.

The results of investigations of the damage to samples of five brands of beryllium (TV-56, TV-400, TV-30, TIP, and DIP), prepared
using the hot-pressing and extrusion technology and also hot isostatic pressing, are presented. The beryllium samples were
irradiated in the channels of the core of an SM reactor and as part of the photoneutron source of the BOR-60 fast reactor
at 70–440°C and neutron fluence (0.3–18)·1022 cm−2 (En > 0.1 MeV). The experimental program included mechanical tests for stretching and compression, measurements of the microhardness,
swelling and specific thermal conductivity, as well as a study of the microstructure. The experimental results are used to
construct the dose dependences of the change of the physicomechanical characteristics of beryllium at different irradiation
temperatures and the trends in these dependences are analyzed.

It has been reported recently in the literature that unexpected thermal and nuclear effects (production of excess heat, neutrons,
γ-rays, and tritium) can occur during the electrolysis of heavy water at palladium or titanium electrodes, or during temperature
and pressure cycling of the titanium/deuterium gas system. We have attempted to reproduce some of these experiments. A variety
of electrochemical cells having palladium cathodes in the form of wires, tubes, sheets, and rods have been used to electrolyze
heavy water containing 0.1 mol.dm−3 LiOH, 0.1 mol.dn−3 LiOD or 0.5 mol.dm−3 D3PO4. Current densities of up to 200 mA.cm−2 were applied. The mass of the palladium cathodes covered the range from 1–40 grams and the surface area varied from 8–140
cm2. Neutron detection systems with low constant backgrounds were used to search for neutron emission during electrolysis. These
included3He- and10BF3-based detectors. After running some of the cells for more than 30 days, no neutron emission above background could be detected.
This puts upper limits of 0.5 s−1 and 2×10−23 fus. D-D.s−1 on the neutron emission and the fusion rate, respectively. A sensitive and accurate heat-flow calorimeter was built and used
to monitor the energy balance of some of the cells during electrolysis. No unexpected heat effects were observed. This puts
an upper limit of 0.13 W.cm−3 on the specific excess power. No enrichment of the electrolyte in tritium was evident after electrolysis. Experiments were
also performed with the titanium/ deuterium gas system. These consisted of exposing titanium metal to a deuterium gas pressure
of 40 atmospheres, lowering the temperature to −196°C, releasing the pressure and gradually warming the titanium to room temperature.
No neutron emission above background was observed during these experiments, which puts upper limits of 0.5 s−1 and 4×10−25 fus.D-D.s−1 on the neutron emission and fusion rate, respectively.

Data from a study of radiation damage to the vessel of a reactor from the retired atomic icebreaker Lenin are used to determine
the radiation embrittlement characteristics of the metal. Irradiation by a low neutron flux of 1010–1011 cm−2sec−1 at the beginning of operation is found to correspond to more intense embrittlement of the metal. Then, apparently, as harmful
elements are depleted in the matrix of the metal, embrittlement is reduced until there is a change in sign relative to the
standard curve obtained for neutron fluxes above 1013 cm−2sec−1. It is proposed that, because of irradiation by low fluxes of neutrons in the peripheral zones of reactor vessels during
some stages of operation, these zones may be damaged to a greater extent than those lying closer to the core. The irradiating
neutron flux is a factor that influences the embrittlement of reactor vessel materials, so there is some interest in studying
how material is damaged in the vessels of power reactors with low radiation loads which are under development. This is also
needed in order to evaluate the efficacy of measures undertaken to reduce the effect of neutron irradiation on reactor vessels.

The neutron fluxes and the intensity of γ radiation are measured in 26 channels of a VVR-SM reactor and its thermal column. The fast neutron fluxes in the channels
are determined using Ni, Fe, Co, Au, and Mn element monitors with different threshold energies, together with a theoretical
calculation using the MCNP-4C program. The energy distribution of the neutron flux inside the fuel assembly is obtained for
selected channels around the core. The flux of neutrons with energies >1 MeV is in the range (0.5–43)·1012 cm−2sec−1, depending on the location of the channel. A linear correlation is discovered between the induced optical absorption at the
215 nm line (E′ center) of SiO2–BaO glass and the fast neutron flux in the channels. The γ-ray intensity in the thermal channel is estimated for the reactor during operation (∼38.4 Gy/sec) and 24 hours after it is
shut down (∼24.7 Gy/sec) using the E′ centers induced in pure quartz glasses. The observed difference in the efficiency with
which oxygen defects are formed during dry and wet irradiation of glass owing to the radiolysis of water must be taken into
account when developing radiation technology and during the burial of radioactive waste.

The dependence of the change of reactivity on energy production is obtained from an analysis of IBR-2 operation during the
period 1982–2006. It is shown that at the start of reactor operation, aside from the pure effect of burnup, additional positive
effects which are most likely associated with fuel densification and structural change of the core material operate. These
effects decrease with time and go to zero. After 40000 MW·h only the effect of pure burnup remains, and from this moment the
reactivity decreases linearly with coefficient kb = −4.3·10−5%/(MW·h). A formula is obtained for calculating the coefficient of energy release at any moment of operation of the reactor.

The main parameters of IBR-2M are presented: the effective delayed-neutron fraction βeff and the promptneutron lifetime τ, calculated using the DORT two-dimensional multigroup neutron-transport compute code and
the SCALE4 code with a system of multigroup nuclear constants. For a regular IBR-2M regime βeff = 0.00216 ± 0.00007, τ = (6.5 ± 0.5)·10–8 sec, the delay-neutron value γ = 0.980, the prompt-neutron decay constant in the critical state α = 3.5·104 sec–1. The calculations showed that the effective delayed-neutron fraction for IBR-2M is identical, within the error limits, to
the measured value for IBR-2, the prompt-neutron lifetime is approximately 5% longer (βeff = 0.00216, τ = (6.2 ± 0.2)·10–8 sec). It is shown that βeff and τ increase somewhat as the IBR-2 core size increases in the radial direction. 相似文献
