Abstract:

The report includes the following 1 status of reactor radiation damage surveillance programs in several power reactors, 2 the effect of neutron spectra on properties of steels exposed in light water, heavy water, and graphite-moderated reactors, 3 the alleviation of neutron embrittlement of A350-LF1 steel by thermal annealing treatment, and 4 through-thickness Charpy V-notch ductility characteristics of a 4-in. A302-B plate.
