Cerium ruthenium low-energy antineutrino measurements for safeguarding military naval reactors [PDF]
The recent agreement to transfer nuclear submarine reactors and technology from two nuclear-weapon states to a non-nuclear-weapon state (AUKUS deal) highlights an unsolved problem in international safeguards: how to safeguard naval reactor fuel while it is on-board an operational nuclear submarine.

Nuclear Reactors And Earthquakes [PDF]
A book is presented which supplies pertinent seismological information to engineers in the nuclear reactor field. Data are presented on the occurrence, intensity, and wave shapes. Techniques are described for evaluating the response of structures to such events. Certain reactor types and their modes of operation are described briefly.

Neutron capture and the antineutrino yield from nuclear reactors [PDF]
We identify a new, flux-dependent correction to the antineutrino spectrum as produced in nuclear reactors. The abundance of certain nuclides, whose decay chains produce antineutrinos above the threshold for inverse beta decay, has a nonlinear dependence on the neutron flux, unlike the vast majority of antineutrino producing nuclides, whose decay rate ...

Within the operational dynamics of a nuclear reactor, the customary approach involves modulating the reactor’s power output by means of control rod manipulation, which effectively alters the neutron density across the core.

Sensitivity of an antineutrino monitor for remote nuclear reactor discovery [PDF]
Antineutrinos from a nuclear reactor comprise an unshieldable signal which carries information about the core. A gadolinium-doped, water-based Cherenkov detector could detect reactor antineutrinos for mid- to far-field remote reactor monitoring for non-proliferation applications.
