- Title
Analysis of Compositional Nuclear Transmutation Effects in Vanadium Alloys under Irradiation.

- Abstract
The effects of nuclear transmutation in vanadium-based alloys under irradiation are considered in different reactor units including fast breeder reactors, such as (1) BOR-60 (experimental fast reactor), (2) EBR-II (experimental breeder reactor), and ITER (international thermonuclear experimental reactor). A comparison of nuclear transmutation rates for the analyzed [V–x% Cr(Ni)–y% Ti] alloys by data mining facilities is performed. It is demonstrated that the dominant types of interactions between neutrons and tested materials correlate with the level of thermalization in the neutron spectrum of a reactor, which has an effect on the value of nuclear transmutation rates to lead to distinctions in the resulting chemical composition of alloys after irradiation.
