Study on effects of heavy ion irradiation on CeO$$_{2}$$ by using synchrotron radiation X-ray absorption spectroscopy; As a simulation study for radiation damage in high-burnup light water reactor fuels

CeO$$_{2}$$ thin films were irradiated with 200 MeV Xe ions. Effects of the irradiation were studied by using Extended X-ray Absorption Fine Structure (EXAFS) measurement at SPring-8 synchrotron radiation facility. EXAFS spectra for the irradiated thin films near the Ce K-edge show that the coordination number for oxygen atoms around Ce atom decreases and that the Ce-O Debye-Waller factor increases by the irradiation. The atomic distance between oxygen atom and Ce atom does not vary within the accuracy of EXAFS measurement. The effect of high density electronic excitation on the structure of CeO$$_{2}$$ is discussed.

Modeling and simulation of thermophysical properties of minor actinides-containing oxide fuels

Katayama, Masahito*; Adachi, Jun*; Kurosaki, Ken*; Uno, Masayoshi*; Miwa, Shuhei; Osaka, Masahiko; Tanaka, Kenya; Yamanaka, Shinsuke*

Materials Research Society Symposium Proceedings, Vol.1043, p.190 - 195, 2008/00

The molecular dynamics (MD) calculation was performed on minor actinides (MA)-containing mixed oxide (MOX) fuels, (U$$_{0.7-x}$$Pu$$_{0.3}$$MA$$_{x}$$)O$$_{2}$$ (x = 0, 0.016, 0.03, 0.05, 0.1, 0.15), and the lattice parameter, heat capacity and thermal conductivity were evaluated. The calculated thermal conductivity data are comparable in (U$$_{0.7-x}$$Pu$$_{0.3}$$MA$$_{x}$$)O$$_{2}$$ at any temperature and any x value, indicating that the thermal conductivity of MA-containing MOX fuels is scarcely influenced by adding MA up to 15 %. The present study shows that the MD calculation can be usefully applied to determine the thermophysical properties of MA-containing MOX fuels.
