Erratum to: Effect of burn-up on the radioactivation behavior of cladding hull materials studied using the ORIGEN-S code

Abstract

Unfortunately in the original publication some errors were found in the input data of simulation program. Consequently, the values of Tables 2, 3, 4, and 5 and Fig. 1 have been changed and the revised version of tables and figures are given in the following pages. In the original work, the authors have mentioned an increase of total radioactivity which was about 16.7-24 % when fuel burn-up increased from 30 to 75 GWD/MTU. But it should be noted that in the new calculation results, a significant increase in the radioactivity was observed between 30 and 45 GWD/MTU, and the total radioactivity values increased by 167, 262, 280, and 318 % for the Zry-4, Zirlo, HANA-4, and HANA-6 cases, respectively, when the fuel burn-up increased from 30 to 75 GWD/MTU. Although the values were changed, the conclusion for the view point of 94 Nb and 60 Co still remains same as shown in the new Fig. 1.
