On the influence of the americium isotopic vector on the cooling time of minor actinides bearing blankets in fast reactors
In the heterogeneous minor actinides transmutation approach, the nuclei to be transmuted are loaded in dedicated targets often located at the core periphery, so that long-lived heavy nuclides are turned into shorter-lived fission products by fission. To compensate for low flux level at the core peri...
