“…At these predicted dose levels, the amount of defects formed in the salts in plutonium storage containers may vary from 0.1% to 1 mol % or more (Bergsma et Under certain conditions, knowing the defect levels present during irradiation is advantageous, rather than theorizing them from data obtained after irradiation (Levy 1991, Levy et al, 1981, Lidiard 1998). This concept was recognized and taken into account to predict radiation damage in plutonium storage containers.…”
