Abstract
The linear thermal expansion of stoichiometric 239PuO2 was measured from 25 to 1420°C. A polynomial least-squares fit of the expansion data yielded the linear expansion expression [in cm/ (cm °C)]:The mean linear expansion coefficient from 25 to 1420° C was 11.16 × 10−6 cm/(cm °C).Keywords
