Summary Pellets of sintered YBa2Cu3O7−δ with three different oxygen contents have been irradiated with fast neutron beams of energies 6.5, 3.3 and 4.4 MeV at fluences of 7.7·104, 1.3·105 and 1.4·109 n/cm2, respectively. The radiation damage has been investigated by comparing the critical temperature (T c mid ), the zero resistivity and the onset temperature before and after neutron irradiation. The critical current has been measured for a few samples in the same experimental conditions. In all transport measurements two different responses to the neutron radiation are observed and discussed.
