Results are given of experimental work performed from February to November 1958 to determine the nature and extent of the build-up of radioactivity in the primary system of the SM-1 (APPR-1). The results of radiochemical and chemical analyses of primary water, circulating crud, and deposits removed from metal test specimens are presented. The relationships between build-up of activity and calendar hours, reactor operation, and crud levels are given. The methods and results of dose rate measurements made on the primary system components are reported. (auth)
