Popis: Hyperstoichiometric UO2.15 was characterized by neutron total scattering at high temperature in the single-phase UO2+x region of the U/O phase diagram. The diffraction data confirmed a single-phase fluorite structure at high temperature. Analysis of the short-range data showed that the same structural model does not fit the pair distribution functions well. Instead, structural models containing specific configurations of oxygen defect clusters best represent the local atomic arrangement. Prevalent defect clusters previously proposed were fit to the experimental data, and moderately distorted oxygen cuboctahedra hypothesized by recent molecular dynamics simulations fit the data most accurately.
