| 6. | During SCRAM the operators can inject solutions containing neutron poisons directly into the reactor coolant.
|
| 7. | For this reason many designs use highly enriched uranium but incorporate burnable neutron poison in the fuel rods.
|
| 8. | I can understand how the neutron poisons and neutron moderators slow down and speed up the fission process.
|
| 9. | Nuclides which have a large absorption cross section are neutron poisons if they are neither fissile nor undergo decay.
