SHORT-LIVED AND FISSION PRODUCT ACTIVITY IN THE SM-1 PRIMARY COOLANT. Final Report. Task III
The primary coolant of the SM-1 (APPR-11 was analyzed for short-lived and fission product activities. Manganese-56 was found to be the predominant nonfission product nuclide contributing to the short-lived activity. Fission products were found in the coolant. It is concluded these fission products originate from a defect(s) in the cladding and from surface contamination of the fuel elements. (auth)
