Resistivity recovery of neutron-irradiated and cold-worked thorium [PDF]
, 1977 Results from a study of the resistivity recovery of neutron-irradiated and cold-worked thorium on isochronal annealing, activation energies, and isothermal annealing and kinetics are discussed. The nature and extent of radiation effects on the resistivity of thorium at 80/sup 0/K, interpretation of stage II recovery above 80/sup 0/K, and activation ...

Recovery of uranium-233 from a thorium breeding blanket by pyrochemical techniques [PDF]
, 1982 We have carefully evaluated several processes that might be suitable for uranium recovery from thorium metal, and have chosen two that hold great promise. Both are simple non-aqueous methods that can readily be performed by remote means, and both require only a few simple process steps.
