A Modeling and Neutron Diffraction Study of the High Temperature Properties of Sub-Stoichiometric Yttrium Hydride for Novel Moderator Applications

Low-enriched-uranium (LEU) reactor systems utilize moderators to improve neutron economy. Solid yttrium hydride is one of the primary moderator candidates for high-temperature (>700 °C) nuclear reactor applications. This is due to its ability to retain hydrogen at elevated temperatures compared to o...
