Abstract: The paper presents the procedure developed at the Department of Radiation Material Science of INR NAS of Ukraine for longitudinal radiometric scanning of surveillance specimens of the Ukrainian reactor vessels and its joint application with macrostructural analysis for sorting specimens relative to their location in VVER-1000 reactor under the irradiation. The specific examples of specimen sorting using both procedures are given.The paper presents the procedure developed at the radiation material study department of INR NAS of Ukraine for longitudinal radiometric scanning of surveillance specimens of the Ukrainian reactor vessels and its joint application with macrostructural analysis for sorting specimens relative to their location in VVER-1000 reactor under the irradiation.
