The Low-Temperature Neutron Irradiation Facility (LTNIF) is now operating in the Bulk Shielding Reactor at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. This facility provides high radiation intensities (approx. 2 x 1017 n/m2s, E> 0.1 MeV) and special environmental and testing conditions (irradiation temperatures from 4°K to 800°K). Sample transfer at 4°K is possible. This user facility is available for qualified experiments at no cost to users. A general description and major specifications of LTNIF are presented, along with the results of performance tests. The hardware and other considerations required to perform experiments in LTNIF are described.

The Materials Sciences Division of the United States Department of Energy will establish a National Low Temperature Neutron Irradiation Facility (NLTNIF) which will utilize the Bulk Shielding Reactor (BSR) located at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. The facility will provide high radiation intensities and special environmental and testing conditions for qualified experiments at no cost to users. This report describes the planned experimental capabilities of the new facility.
