Investigation of Fuel Cycle for a Sub-critical Fusion-fission Hybrid Breeder Reactor
iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank my parents for providing me with a loving and supportive environment which cultivated my love for science and the drive to pursue it; my advisor, Professor Stacey for his insight, guidance, and reassurance throughout my introduction to the discipline of nuclear engineering; Professor Petrovic who helped refine my understanding of reactor physics; the p...
متن کاملsimulation of an icf reaction as a source in an mcnpx 2.6.0 simulation for a fission-fusion hybrid reactor
in this work, we had examined 7 different types of neutron sources -an isotropic point source, sending 14.1(mev) monoenergetic neutrons ,an spherical source with 30 micron radius sending 14.1 (mev) monoenergetic neutrons, and a 30 micron radius spherical source having gaussian fusion energy spectrum from a d-t fusion, with different bandwidths -1,10,50,100 and 1000 kev and investigated 5 differ...
متن کاملThe Fusion-Fission Hybrid Reactor for Energy Production: A Practical Path to Fusion Application
The fusion-fission hybrid system has the potential attractiveness of good safety performances and plenty of fuel compared to the fission reactor system and also easing the requirement of fusion plasma technology. It is a practical path to the early fusion application for energy production. In this paper, a fusion-driven subcritical reactor for energy multiplier, named FDS-EM, is proposed. It ca...
متن کاملTagging fast neutrons from a 252Cf fission-fragment source.
Coincidence and time-of-flight measurement techniques are employed to tag fission neutrons emitted from a 252Cf source sealed on one side with a very thin layer of Au. The source is positioned within a gaseous 4He scintillator detector. Together with α particles, both light and heavy fission fragments pass through the thin layer of Au and are detected. The fragments enable the corresponding fis...
متن کاملThe International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor and the Nuclear Weapons Proliferation Implications of Thermonuclear-Fusion Energy Systems
This report contains two parts: (1) A list of “points” highlighting the strategic-political and military-technical reasons and implications of the very probable siting of ITER (the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor) in Japan, which should be confirmed sometimes in early 2004. (2) A technical analysis of the nuclear weapons proliferation implications of inertialand magnetic-confin...
