Characterization and localization of partial-discharge-induced pulses in fission chambers designed for sodium-cooled fast reactors

During the operation of the Superphenix and Phenix reactors, an aberrant electrical signal was detected from the fission chambers used for neutron flux monitoring. This signal, thought to be due to partial electrical discharge (PD) is similar to the signal resulting from neutron interactions, and is...
