Abstract
Plutonium compounds have excellent potential for space power applications, both thermoelectric and thermionic. This paper attempts to systematically present the various information available in the literature; secondly, it includes data generated at Battelle; and third, data obtained from all sources are interrelated in such manner as to suggest several plutonium-bearing thermoelectric and thermionic fuel candidates of greatest worth.
