Fast Rossi-alpha Measurements of Plutonium using Organic Scintillators
M. Y. Hua, C. A. Bravo, A. T. MacDonald +7
In this work, Rossi-alpha measurements were simultaneously performed with a He-based detection system and an organic scintillator-based detection system. The assembly is 15 kg…
Measured Nondestructive Assay of Np Using Organic Scintillators and Active Neutron Multiplicity Counting
Michael Y. Hua, Thomas A. Plummer, Jesson D. Hutchinson +3
The purpose of nondestructive assay in the context of nuclear safeguards is to precisely verify the declared mass of a sample of nuclear material in a noninhibitive amount of time.…
Patchy nuclear chain reactions
Eric Dumonteil, Rian Bahran, Theresa Cutler +9
Stochastic fluctuations of the neutron population within a nuclear reactor are typically prevented by operating the core at a sufficient power, since a deterministic behavior of th…
