Neutron and hard X-ray diffraction studies of the isothermal transformation kinetics in the research reactor fuel candidate U-8 wt%Mo

Exposing uranium-molybdenum alloys (UMo) retained in the γ phase to elevated temperatures leads to transformation reactions during which the γ-UMo phase decomposes into the thermal equilibrium phases, i.e. U2Mo and α-U. Since α-U is not suitable for a nuclear fuel exposed to high burn-up, it is nece...
