PRODUCING ENERGY AND RADIOACTIVE FISSION PRODUCTS
Abstract
This patent broadly discloses the production of plutonium by the neutron bombardment of uranium to produce neptunium which decays to plutonium, and the fissionability of plutonium by neutrons, both fast and thermal, to produce energy and fission products.
