Justification of the transition to erbium fuel in VVER-1000 type reactors based on a comparative analysis of reactivity coefficients for gadolinium and erbium burnable absorbers

open access: yesГлобальная ядерная безопасность
The paper presents the neutron-physical justification of replacement of the burn-up gadolinium absorber placed in a small number of fuel elements by erbium placed in all fuel elements of the fuel assembly.
