Abstract :
In this paper, to explore the applicability of nondestructive test to detect radiation embrittlement in reactor pressure vessel, we investigate ferromagnetic resonance supplemented by vibrating sample magnetometer. Specimens used in this investigation were SA508-3 low alloy steels with different refining process. Magnetization as a function of the applied field was measured.
