Compilation of Existing Neutron Screen Technology
Science and Technology of Nuclear Installations, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014 The presence of fast neutron spectra in new reactors is expected to induce a strong impact on the contained materials, including structural materials, nuclear fuels, neutron reflecting materials, and tritium breeding materials. Therefore, introduction of these reactors into operation will require extensive testing of their components, which must be ...
