Corrosion induced by low-energy radionuclides : modeling of tritium and its radiolytic and decay products formed in nuclear installations /

Nuclear power plants emit radiation and particles across a range of energies. This radiation can cause corrosion to occur in critically important parts of the plant, which can lead to efficiency and safety problems. Gamma rays and neutrons have the highest energies and can break the metal bonds in i...
