Neutron diffraction investigation of the microstructure of lead-potassium melt bubbled with heavy water

The results of neutron diffraction microstructure investigation of a eutectic lead-potassium melt bubbled with heavy water are presented. The structure factors and pair correlation functions for pure eutectic and eutectic bubbled with heavy water are compared. Evidence of the presence of deuterium i...

Summary:The results of neutron diffraction microstructure investigation of a eutectic lead-potassium melt bubbled with heavy water are presented. The structure factors and pair correlation functions for pure eutectic and eutectic bubbled with heavy water are compared. Evidence of the presence of deuterium in the latter melt has been shown in the diffraction pattern.
