Dynamics of Energy Release in a Nuclear-Reactor Core
摘要
Abstract
The development of reactor technologies and neutrino physics by means of nuclear reactors requires unceasingly refining and extending knowledge of reactors as an antineutrino source. By employing new data on the reactor-antineutrino spectrum and updated nuclear databases and upon taking into account special features of fuel burnup, the thermal energy released in the reactor core per fission event is calculated for a standard operating period of a thermal-neutron reactor.
