History of the development of zirconium alloys for use in nuclear reactors
Three papers are included in this report: One presentation by Admiral Rickover, and two papers he requested outlining the key events associated with the use of zirconium alloys for use in neval reactors. The three papers are: ''The decision to use zirconium in nuclear reactors'', by Admiral H.G. Rickover, (presented at the William J. Kroll Medal Presentation, Denver Colorado, March 21, 1975), ''Development of sources of supply for zirconium and hafnium for nuclear reactors'' , by L.D. Geiger, and, ''Technical development of zirconium for nuclear reactor use'', by B. Lustman.
