OSTI ID:4172052
Fission gas bubble nucleation and theories of swelling in irradiated metal fuels are considered. The gaseous fission products in uranium precipitate into an array of bubbles typically a few hundred angstroms diameter with about 10/ sup 13/ bubbles per cc. The growth of the bubbles is discussed. The conditions for breakaway from surface restraint and possible breakaway mechanisms are discussed. (C.J.G.)
