To obtain the data necessary for evaluating the nuclear design method of a large-scale fast breeder reactor, criticality tests with a large- scale homogeneous reactor were conducted as part of a joint research program by Japan and the U.S. Analyses of the tests are underway in both countries. The purpose of this paper is to describe the status of this project.
