As part of a joint research program between the Paul Scherrer Inst. (PSI) and swiss nuclear, measurements and calculations have been made of the fission and neutron capture distributions in the fuel rods of a Westinghouse SVEA-96 Optima2 boiling water reactor assembly. The measurements were made in the zero-energy research reactor PROTEUS at PSI and the calculations reported in this paper were made at PSI. The results reported here are for the region near the ends of the part-length fuel rods used in SVEA-96 Optimal assemblies. (authors)
