Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/4069215· OSTI ID:4069215
The comparison is made on the basis of nuclear requirements, properties, cost, and performance under irradiation. Results of published work were reviewed on the effects of irradiation on beryllium oxide and beryllium oxide - uranium dioxide dispersions. A research proposal for a Maritime Gas-cooled Reaotor Moderator is included. (J.R.D.)
