| 32. | We have international collaboration with other banana breeding centres where gamma rays and fast neutrons are used.
|
| 33. | The plutonium-uranium ratio in the ash may even approximate the composition needed for fast neutron reactor fuel.
|
| 34. | Finally, tritium and deuterium produces fast neutrons which means any reactor burning it would require heavy shielding.
|
| 35. | This enables fast neutrons to dominate, which can effectively be used to constantly replenish the fuel supply.
|
| 36. | When a fast neutron collides with a light nucleus, it loses a large fraction of its energy.
|
| 37. | The cross section for interaction with nuclei is much larger for slow neutrons than for fast neutrons.
|
| 38. | Fast neutrons are needed to make plutonium, the nuclear fuel that the breeder was meant to produce.
|
| 39. | In some designs, the coolant is the moderator and turns the useless fast neutrons into slow ones.
|
| 40. | Moltex Energy based in the UK proposes to build a fast neutron reactor called the Stable Salt Reactor.
