He was appointed Scientific Officer ( a first-class officer rank ) in the Theoretical Reactor Physics Division of BARC, where he worked for two years.
12.
The operator error was probably due to their lack of knowledge of nuclear reactor physics and engineering, as well as lack of experience and training.
13.
Such neutron absorbent materials are often part of reactor control rods ( see nuclear reactor physics for a description of this process of reactor control ).
14.
After being renamed the Sigma Center, the group was moved to the Reactor Physics Division of the Nuclear Engineering Department in the Brookhaven Lab in 1960.
15.
As for delayed neutrons, do you think it is better to include them in nuclear fission or to leave them ( like now ) in nuclear reactor physics?
16.
Rather than being used to study reactor physics and technology, the swimming-pool-type reactor was used as a neutron source, and it became a versatile tool for interdisciplinary research.
17.
The reactor is used for a variety of purposes : undergraduate education involves NAA ( Neutron Activation Analysis ), reactor physics experiments and radioisotopes for tracers and counting experiments.
18.
It was a small experimental reactor with a thermal power of 1 MW . The purpose of R1 was not to produce power or plutonium but to gain insight into reactor physics.
19.
From 1962 to 1968, he studied nuclear reactor physics at the Czech Technical University in Prague, then worked as researcher and teacher at Faculty of Mathematics and Physics of Comenius University in Bratislava.
20.
He joined du Pont in 1951 after five years with General Electric Co . in Schenectady, N . Y ., working on breeder reactors, reactors for submarines and experimental techniques in reactor physics.
