Abstract
Core debris samples were obtained from the upper plenum debris, the central consolidated region, standing fuel rod assemblies, and the lower plenum debris to determine the temperatures that were reached during the accident, the materials interactions that occurred, the bulk composition of the materials, the oxidation of the materials and the retention of fission products in the core materials. The results of the metallurgical examinations and the bulk compositions are described in this paper.
