| 11. | For instance nitrogen-17 emits two beta-delayed neutrons after its primary beta emission.
|
| 12. | This concept arises because delayed neutrons are emitted with an energy spectrum more thermalized relative to prompt neutrons.
|
| 13. | He concentrated on the beta-delayed neutron decay mode, especially the spectroscopy of the emitted neutrons.
|
| 14. | Where 511 keV is the annihilation and delayed neutron capture provides a clear IBD signature in neutrino detectors.
|
| 15. | The lower percentage of delayed neutrons makes the use of large percentage of plutonium in nuclear reactors more challenging.
|
| 16. | The delayed neutrons allow a nuclear reactor to respond several orders of magnitude more slowly than just prompt neutrons would alone.
|
| 17. | Without delayed neutrons, changes in reaction rates in nuclear reactors would occur at speeds that are too fast for humans to control.
|
| 18. | This process is the source of so-called delayed neutrons, which play an important role in control of a nuclear reactor.
|
| 19. | These neutrons, which on average account for less than one percent of the total neutrons released by fission, are called delayed neutrons.
|
| 20. | In a delayed-critical assembly, the delayed neutrons are needed to make " k-effective " greater than one.
