Jaegers, P J; Sanchez, R G

The Zeus experiment is intended to provide nuclear criticality benchmark data for a wide variety of fissile and nonfissile materials in both fast and intermediate neutron energy spectra systems. The authors present a brief description of the Zeus assembly. They then present experimental results, from three configurations, produced during the initial core loading and approach to critical.
