Description/Abstract:
COMMERCIALLY PURE MO WAS IRRADIATED IN AN MTR FAST NEUTRON FLUX TO EXPOSURES FROM 6.5 X 1016 TO 1.2 X 1020 NEUTRONS/CM2 (NVT). CHANGES IN LATTICE PARAMETERS, LINE WIDTHS, MICROSTRESSES (DISTORTION), FRAGMENTATION (PARTICLE SIZE) & PREFERRED ORIENTATION WERE MEASURED BY X-RAY DIFFRACTION TECHNIQUES. (MO WAS STUDIED AS THE METAL MOST LIKELY TO YIELD BASIC INFORMATION ABOUT RADN DAMAGE IN GENERAL)
