Change in Magnetic Susceptibility of Irradiated Graphite During Pulse Annealing,

Abstract

Pulse annealing studies are presented of the magnetic susceptibility of AGOT-KC graphite with irradiations of 12.5, 48, 146, 460 and 1534 mwd/ct in the Hanford "B" test hole. The samples were pulsed stepwise in steps of approximately 100 deg C to a temperature of 2180 deg C where the samples showed complete recovery to their pre-irradiation value. The curves show two active annealing regions, the first between 100 deg C and 500 deg C and the second between 1100 deg C and 1500 deg C. The data are in good agreement with theory. This report is based upon studies conducted for the Atomic Energy Commission under Contract AT-11-l-GEN-8. jg p.4
