AbstractThe increase of activities of fission products and transmutation products in the primary coolant of a nuclear power plant indicates the presence of fuel rod failures. The measurement of the activity concentration of the primary coolant was able to detect fuel failures in the reactor core. Microanalytical methods for examining individual hot particles have been developed and applied to fuel failure detection under normal operation conditions as well as during the severe fuel damage that occurred in the cleaning tank incident at Unit 2 of NPP Paks in April 2003. Several faulty fuel rods can be detected simultaneously by the characterization of individual hot particles originating from the primary water. The analysis of particles originating from the damaged fuels provides information relating to the dissolution process of the fuel debris.


The nature of the angular distribution of the particles emitted in artificial transmutations is a matter which has received little attention. Hitherto experimental investigation has been mainly concentrated on the determination of the energy release and nature of various transmutations. But it is now clear that we have sufficiently precise data concerning the nature of many transmutations to make profitable their further investi­gation, and in particular the investigation of the angular distribution of the transmutation products. Moreover, in much of the literature it is implicitly assumed that the transmutation products are uniformly dis­tributed in space when referred to relative coordinates, i. e ., coordinates in which the centre of gravity of the system is considered to be at rest; in particular, all attempts to determine absolute yields depend upon the correctness of this assumption. The work so far published on this subject appears to support the uniformity of angular distribution, but further investigation is clearly of some importance. During the course of some cloud-chamber experiments on the trans­mutation 2 D + 2 D → 3 T + 1 H, (1) Dee formed the tentative opinion that the angular distribution of the protons emitted was not uniform. The alternative transmutation 2 D + 2 D → 3 He + 1 n (2) is very similar to (1), since the spins of the particles are probably identical and the energy balances of the same order of magnitude. We have therefore investigated the angular distribution for both these trans­mutations.
