SOME ELASTIC PROPERTIES OF BeO AT ROOM TEMPERATURE

Journal Article · · Journal of Nuclear Materials (Netherlands)
The velocity of sound waves in a large number of BeO samples was determined at room temperature and used to calculate the elastic properties of BeO. The calculated properties were Young's modulus, shear modulus, and Poisson's ratio. Measurements on three irradiated samples showed no effects of 1.4 x 10/sup 8/ r Co/sup 60/ gamma rays on the elastic properties. A plot of Young's modulus vs density is given. (D.L.C.)
