Abstract

Alkali halide melts are a prospective stable material in molten salt nuclear reactor engineering in which melts are subjected to heavy irradiation by high energy nuclear radiation of different LET. Recently a pulse radiolysis method has been applied to study the radiation-induced decomposition of the melts of alkali halides and their mixtures. The proposed mechanism of decomposition has shown that ionization of halogen ion (X-) by radiation initiates the radiolysis.
