Study of Threshold Reaction Rates Inside and on the Surface of a 0.8-GeV Proton-Irradiated Thick W-Na Target
Recommended from our members
Experimental and theoretical study of the residual product nuclide yields in thin targets irradiated with 100-2600 MeV protons.
The work is aimed at measurements and computer simulations of independent and cumulative yields of residual product nuclei in thin targets relevant as target materials and structure materials for hybrid accelerator-driven systems coupled to high-energy proton accelerators

Fission Parameters Measurements for Np, Pu, Am, and Cm Isotopes Inside a Salt Blanket Micromodel
Pursuing verification of the nuclear data for actinides, we have made a run of experiments to determine reaction rates in facilities with different neutron spectra. The researches of the kind are particularly argent when going over from the transmutation physics studies to designing the transmutation reactors and developing their fuel cycle equipment. In this case, the nuclear data on the minor actinides (Np, Am, Cm) are notably interesting with the view to correct prediction of transmutation rates and t,o validation of hazardous nuclear and radiation environment for the external (off-reactor) fuel cycle. It is in the case of just those nuclides when the well-known ENDF/B6 and JENDL3.2 libraries give the most discrepant nuclear cross sections, thus necessitating the high- priority experimental tests
