Abstract
Vanadium and vanadium alloys with gallium, chromium and cerium were ir radiated at 400 degrees C in the BR-10 reactor. The neutron fluence wa s 5.15 . 10(25) n/m(2) (E > 0.1 MeV). The elastic modules (E and G) an d swelling of the alloys were measured after irradiation. It is establ ished that swelling in the alloys is negligible and the elastic proper ties do not change significantly after irradiation. The experimental r esults are briefly discussed.
