Post Irradiation Examination Results of Irradiated Yttrium Hydride

Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) Microreactor program (MRP) aims to provide the fundamental data to enable the development of microreactors. As such, material property data of critical materials for microreactor technologies are researched. Because substoichiometric yttrium dihydride (YHx, where x<2) is considered as a potential solid neutron moderator, its material property data has been combined in […]
