Abstract :
Like other institutes, CEA have significantly increased its effort to enhance measurement capabilities Material Testing Reactors (MTR) in order to meet the latest requirements of the MTR users. A collaboration framework set up between CEA and the Belgian Research Centre for Nuclear Energy SCK·CEN and the University of Provence. Some representative examples of recent or upcoming irradiation experiments using noteworthy in-pile instrumentation are presented.
