A multi-scale review of the effects of gamma radiation on concrete
For concrete used in dry cask nuclear storage, gamma radiation on the order of MGy is an important weathering mechanism. At such doses, previous studies have observed microstructural effects such as changes in carbonate speciation, which have correlated with a decrease in bulk porosity. However, the...
