The National Low-Temperature Neutron Irradiation Facility (NLTNIF), now constructed and currently being evaluated, will provide high radiation intensities and special environmental and testing conditions for qualified experiments at no cost to users. The NLTNIF will be of interest for both basic and applied research on fusion reactor materials. A general description and major specifications of the facility are presented along with recent results of the performance tests. In addition, a description is given of the procedure and experimental assemblies needed to perform experiments in the NLTNIF.

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.

This Workshop was held at Oak Ridge National Laboratory May 29-31, 1985, to aid in preparing for the use of the National Low-Temperature Neutron Irradiation Facility (NLTNIF), which is being built at the Bulk Shielding Reactor at Oak Ridge National Laboratory and is scheduled to be ready for experiments late in 1985. NLTNIF will be operated as a user facility, with no cost to users for the irradiations for approved experiments. Purposes of the Workshop were to review research areas for which NLTNIF can be used, and to provide necessary experimental details about the facility for potential users. One day consisted of a series of presentations on scientific topics relevant to NLTNIF. Summaries of these talks are included in this report.
