The irradiation performance of ThO/sub 2/-UO/sub 2/ is fuel discussed. Fuel elements in which the pellets were leadbonded to aluminum alloy cladding permitted a higher average heat flux without cladding failures resulting from burnout than did a helium bond. A decreased central void formation was observed when using molybdenum wire reinforcement. (C.J.G.)
