Diving board proposal
Use a 2 MeV Xenon beam to irradiate a diving board that is machined out of 2 mm UO2 pins from INL.

Use 2 MeV protons to irradiate zirconium to study the temperature dependence of the initial recombination. The incident proton causes surface damage on the zirconium during the ballistic phase knout out. Recombination occurs afterwards and can be temperature dependent.
