Abstract

Solid State Track Recorder (SSTR) measurements of neutron-induced fission rates have been made in several pressure vessel mockup facilities as part of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission sponsored Light Water Reactor Pressure Vessel Surveillance Dosimetry Improvement Program. These measurements have been made at U.S., Belgian, and British facilities which have been designed to replicate various aspects of light water reactor core, water gap, thermal shield, pressure vessel and reactor cavity geometries. The results of SSTR fission rate measurements, comparisons of these measurements with other techniques, and comparisons to theoretical calculations are presented.
