In this work, the rate of radiation damage production in a uranium target of the neutron source at NSC KIPT under electrons irradiation with an energy of 100 MeV was estimated. The contribution of elastic and inelastic processes is determined: high-energy electrons and gamma quanta, photo-neutron pr...
