OSTI ID:4108352
A reactor is described which uses discrete solid bodies of fissile material distributed in moderator materials, e.g., beryllia marbles containing plutonium, contained in a hanging vessel built of blocks of moderator materials, e.g., beryllia. Cooling gas may be pumped into the core and out through perforations in the reactor floor, although other possible coolant paths are discussed. A reflector mass surrounding the reactor may be built of beryllia marbles. The fuel marbles are of the same type as those described in Patent Specification No. 848,901. Drawings are included.
