A Comparison of Some Neutronics Characteristics of Critical Reactors and Accelerator Driven Subcritical Systems

After a general introduction of characteristics of possible critical reactor systems (CRS) and accelerator driven systems (ADS) it is proposed only to compare similar systems, based on the same design principles.
