Studies of neutron induced reactions are of great interest, not only for their importance to fundamental research in Nuclear Physics but also for practical applications. Iron is a major structural material, widely used in nuclear technology applications, especially in nuclear reactors where it can be found in several places, from the core structures to reflectors, etc. For this reason,...
GRAPE: Neutron transmission experiments at GELINA for stainless steel nuclear data
Molten salt reactors (MSR) is a GEN-IV technologies using fuel in the form of very hot fluoride or chloride salt. There are many benefits associated to this technology, but a major drawback is the fuel sensitivity to neutron transmutation. In the case of molten chloride reactors, chlorine is the carrier salt with the fuels being, for example, UCl3-NaCl or PuCl3-NaCl. In these cases, neutron...
