The effects of neutron irradiation in dry tube (DT) and rotary rack (RR) facilities at PUSPATI TRIGA Reactor on the superconducting properties of (Bi1.6Pb0.4)Sr2Ca2Cu3O10 (Bi-2223) are reported. The samples were prepared via the co-precipitation method and exposed to neutron irradiation in both facilities for 0.25�h to 5�h with neutron flux 6.90 � 1012 and 2.75 � 1012 n cm?2�s?1, respectively. The structure, microstructure, radionuclide, electrical resistance, and AC susceptibility were determined. Energy-dispersive X-ray analysis revealed the presence of Zn and Po due to the neutron activation. Gamma spectroscopy analysis showed that neutron irradiation produced 85Sr radionuclide. The electrical resistance showed onset temperature, Tc-onset of 118�K and transport critical current density, Jc-t of 2.14 A cm?2 at 50�K for the non-irradiated sample. AC susceptibility showed that the transition temperature, Tc?? was around 106 to 109�K and 105 to 109�K for samples irradiated in DT and RR facilities, respectively.
