Neutron spectral characterization for the fifth Heavy Section Steel Technology (HSST) irradiation series: ''neutronics exposure parameters''. Volume 3

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5730660

This is the third volume of a three-volume report which describes the simulator experiments of the fifth series of HSST irradiation experiments. Purpose of these three volumes is to document the experimental and calculational methodology for determining the neutron-exposure parameters. In this volume, the best estimates for the values and spatial distribution of fluence rate phi (E > 1.0 MeV), fluence rate phi (E > 0.1 MeV), and displacements per atom per second (dpa/s) are determined using LSL-M2, a least squares logarithmic spectrum adjustment procedure with input values taken from dosimetry data from Vol. 1 and neutronics calculations from Vol. 2. These estimates have an overall uncertainty of less than 20% relative standard deviation.
