Thermal Properties of Uranium-Molybdenum Alloys: Phase Decomposition Effects of Heat Treatments

Uranium-Molybdenum (U-Mo) alloys are of interest to the nuclear engineering community for their potential use as reactor fuel. The addition of molybdenum serves to stabilize the gamma phase of uranium, as well as increasing the melting point of the fuel. Thermal properties of U-Mo alloys have not be...
