Application of the Source-Jerk method using a neutron generator in a subcritical reactor
Acta Polytechnica, 2023 This paper describes the application of the Source-Jerk method using a neutron generator in the VR-1 reactor. The experiments were carried out on a shutdown reactor with subcriticality greater than -10 βeff.

Measurement of prompt gamma field above the VR-1 water level [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2021 Pool-type reactors are an excellent source of high energy photons without neutrons because the water above fuel acts as an outstanding neutron shielding, whereas for high energy photons, it is nearly transparent.

Calculation and measurement of Al prompt capture gammas above water in a pool-type reactor
Nuclear Engineering and Technology, 2022 Prompt capture gammas are an important part of the fission reactor gamma field. Because some of the structural materials after neutron capture can emit photons with high energies forming the dominant component of the gamma spectrum in the high energy ...

Thermally safe operation of a cooled semi-batch reactor: slow liquid-liquid reactions [PDF]
, 1988 Thermally safe operation of a semi-batch reactor (SBR) implies that conditions leading to strong accumulation of unreacted reactants must be avoided. All thermal responses of a SBR, in which a slow liquid-liquid reaction takes place, can be represented ...
