DEVELOPMENT OF THE S1C RADIUM BERYLLIUM TEST SOURCE WELDS
Technical Report

OSTI ID:4239898
Two prime SlC radium --beryllium test sources each containing 0.4 curie of radium were successfully fabricated by welding techniques without hot lab facilities, bealth physics procedures were observed to assure that no person received radiation exposure exceeding that permitted by the AEC for the time period involved. All welds were made in a lathe with inert arc welding equipment Development disclosed that control or the fit between parts and control of the welding atmosphere were vital to provide welds meeting specifications. Welding heat should be kept to a minimum as excessive heat increases the number and size of the voids especially on closure welds. (auth)
