Design of a Low Enrichment, Enhanced Fast Flux Core for the MIT Research Reactor

Worldwide, there is limited test reactor capacity to perform the required irradiation experiments on advanced fast reactor materials and fuel designs. This is particularly true in the U.S., which no longer has an operating fast reactor but depends upon two aging thermal reactors for testing the b...
