Change in radiation characteristics outside the SNF storage container as an indicator of fuel rod cladding destruction

The characteristics of the external radiation on the surface of the casks for spent nuclear fuel (SNF) storage by dry method are investigated for the case when the spatial distribution of SNF in the basket changes due to the destruction of the fuel rod claddings. The surface areas are determined, wh...
