Aqueous homogeneous reactorAqueous homogeneous reactors (AHR) is a 2 chamber reactor consisting of an interior reactor chamber and an outside cooling and moderating jacket chamber. are a type of nuclear reactor in which soluble nuclear salts (usually uranium sulfate or uranium nitrate) are dissolved in water. The fuel is mixed with heavy or light water which partially moderates and cools the reactor. The outside layer of the reactor has more water which also partially cools and acts as a moderator, .
Natural abundanceIn physics, natural abundance (NA) refers to the abundance of isotopes of a chemical element as naturally found on a planet. The relative atomic mass (a weighted average, weighted by mole-fraction abundance figures) of these isotopes is the atomic weight listed for the element in the periodic table. The abundance of an isotope varies from planet to planet, and even from place to place on the Earth, but remains relatively constant in time (on a short-term scale). As an example, uranium has three naturally occurring isotopes: 238U, 235U, and 234U.
