Thermophysical calculations conducted for the lithium metatitanate pebble for irradiation conditions, taking into account the non-uniform distribution of energy release along the pebble radius (due to self-shielding), as well as taking into account vacuum conditions, showed that the observed gradients along the pebble were quite significant; in the area of contact of the sample with the stainless steel capsule bottom they could be up to 80 K/mm ( Figure 6 ).
