Book excerpt: The number of neutrons per fission, Nu, of Pu-241 has been measured at thermal energies relative to Pu-239, U-235 and U-233. The measurement yielded for the product of Nu and the fission cross-section: (sup sigma)F(sup Nu) = 3200 (plus or minus) 60 barn neutrons/fission. Suing the recent value (sup sigma)F(sup Nu) = 1100 (plus or minus) 30 b, we calculate Nu = 2.91 (plus or minus) 0.10 neutrons/fission.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The thermal neutron fission cross section of Pu-241 has been measured relative to that of Pu-239 in the thermal column of the former Argonne heavy water reactor, CP-3'. The result was (sup sigma)F(sup 2200 m/s) = 1100 (plus or minus) 30 b if the Pu-241 cross section follows the 1/Nu relation.

Download or read book Evaluation of the Thermal neutron Constants for 233U 235U 239Pu and 241Pu written by and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A consistent set of best values of the 2200 meter/second neutron cross sections, Westcott g-factors, and fission neutron yields for 233U, 235U, 239Pu and 241Pu are presented. A least squares fitting program, LSF, is used to obtain the best fit and to estimate the sensitivity of these fissile parameters to the quoted uncertainties in experimental data. The half-lives of the uranium and plutonium nuclides have been evaluated and these have been used to reassess the significant experimental data. The latest revision of the spontaneous fission neutron yield anti nu, of 252Cf and the foil thickness corrections to the fission neutron yield ratios of fissile nuclei to 252Cf are included. These lead to greater consistency in the data used for anti nu (252Cf). Similarly, the 234U half-life as revised leads to improved consistency in the 235U fission cross section. Comparison is made with the values from ENDF/B-V and other evaluations.

Book excerpt: The number of prompt neutrons ($\bar{{u03BD}}$) produced in the thermal neutron induced fission of U233, U235, Pu239 and Pu241 has been determined with high accuracy using the liquid scintillator technique. Measurements were made relative to an assumed value of $\bar{{u03BD}}$ = 3.784 for the spontaneous fission of Cf252. The present results are compared with previous measurements.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is intended to provide an introduction to the basic principles of nuclear fission reactors for advanced undergraduate or graduate students of physics and engineering. The presentation is also suitable for physicists or engineers who are entering the nuclear power field without previous experience with nuclear reactors. No background knowledge is required beyond that typically acquired in the first two years of an undergraduate program in physics or engineering. Throughout, the emphasis is on explaining why particular reactor systems have evolved in the way they have, without going into great detail about reactor physics or methods of design analysis, which are already covered in a number of excellent specialist texts. The first two chapters serve as an introduction to the basic physics of the atom and the nucleus and to nuclear fission and the nuclear chain reaction. Chapter 3 deals with the fundamentals of nuclear reactor theory, covering neutron slowing down and the spatial dependence of the neutron flux in the reactor, based on the solution of the diffusion equations. The chapter includes a major section on reactor kinetics and control, including'tempera ture and void coefficients and xenon poisoning effects in power reactors. Chapter 4 describes various aspects offuel management and fuel cycles, while Chapter 5 considers materials problems for fuel and other constituents of the reactor. The processes of heat generation and removal are covered in Chapter 6.
