INTERCOMPARISON OF CADMIUM-INDIUM-SILVER, HAFNIUM, AND CADMIUM-SILVER CONTROL RODS

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4322148
Control rods of Cd--Ag, Cd--In-Ag, and Hf were intercompared by means of the negative buckling technique. Four group Wanda calculations of shutdown reactivity, using measured negative bucklings, were made. Results are tabulated. (W.L.H.)
