In our experiments, post-irradiation anneal of lightly-irradiated UO/sub 2/ was used to measure the release kinetics of the volatile fission products Xe, I, and Te. The fraction of a particular fission product retained in a specimen was measured by gamma-ray spectroscopy before and following an anneal.
