Description/Abstract:
TUBES OF ALTERNATE CAST AND INGOT CONTROL MATERIAL WERE IRRADIATED A C REACTOR TO 2 DIFFERENT EXPOSURES. WARP, END DIAMETER, AND CENTER DIAMETER CHANGE WERE MEASURED. TRHE CAST MATERIAL WAS LESS DIMENSIONALLY STABLE THAN THE CONTROL MATERIAL. THERE SEEMED TO BE NO SIGNIFICANT CORRELATION BETWEEN EXPOSURE LEVEL AND WARP AND GROWTH.
