Fast Flux Measurements by Meams of Threshold Detectors on the Melusine Reactor; MESURES DE FLUX RAPIDE A L'AIDE DE DETECTEURS A SEUIL SUR LE REACTEUR "MELUSINE"

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4180267
Using existing data on the (n,p) and (n, alpha ) threshold reactions, fast flux measurements were made on the swimming pool type reactor "Melusine" Four common elements. P, S, Mg, and Al were chosen because from the point of view of fast spectrum analysis they represent a fairly good energy range from 2.4 to 0 Mev. The fission flux value found in the central element at a power of 1 Mw is I.4 plus or minus 10/sup 13/ n/cm/sup 2/,/s plus or minus 0.14. (auth)
