reactors originating from the Calder Hall design. It is designed to serve as a prototype for future power station reaotors. The AGCR has a thermal rating of 100 Mw (27.3 Mw(e)). Beryllium-(canned UO/sub 2/ fuel elements comprise 80% of the charge, while stainless steel clad elements make up the remainder. The installation provides breakdown and inspection of irradiated fuel. Supporting and complementary experiments at Windscale include sub critical assemblies and "HERO," a hot experimental reactor of zero energy. Resign characteristics are given for the reactor which is expected to be operable in October 1961. (B.O.G.)
