NEUTRON EMISSION MEASUREMENTS OF PWR SPENT FUEL SEGMENTS AND PRELIMINARY VALIDATION OF DEPLETION CALCULATIONS [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2021
Assessing neutron emission of LWR spent fuel is necessary for the back-end of the fuel cycle, such as the dimensioning of transport and storage casks of spent fuel.

CORE SIM+ SIMULATIONS OF COLIBRI FUEL RODS OSCILLATION EXPERIMENTS AND COMPARISON WITH MEASUREMENTS [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2021
At EPFL, the CROCUS reactor has been used to carry out experiments with vibrating fuel rods. The paper presents a first attempt to employ the measured data to validate CORE SIM+, a neutron noise solver developed at Chalmers University of Technology.

Delayed gamma fraction determination in the zero power reactor CROCUS

open access: yesEPJ Nuclear Sciences & Technologies, 2021
Gamma rays are an inextricable part of a nuclear reactor’s radiation field, and as such require characterization for dose rate estimations required for the radiation protection of personnel, material choices, and the design of nuclear facilities.

Designing a tokamak fusion reactor—How does plasma physics fit in?

open access: yes, 2015
This paper attempts to bridge the gap between tokamak reactor design and plasma physics. The analysis demonstrates that the overall design of a tokamak fusion reactor is determined almost entirely by the constraints imposed by nuclear physics and fusion ...
