A Study of the Minimum Thermal Power of a Nuclear Reactor
The minimum mass for a critical reactor is well studied whereas the minimum heat production from a nuclear reactor has received little attention. The thermal power of a (sub)critical reactor originates from fission as well as radioactive decay. Fission includes neutron-induced and spontaneous fissio...
