Method development for discrimination of anodic and cathodic signals in miniature fission chambers for reactor physics applications

In 2014, a measurement campaign was made at CEA Cadarache using different versions of a high sensibility miniature fission chamber prototype with two fissile layers. The current project studies the possibilities of discrimination between signals coming fro ...

This chapter summarizes different innovative fuel production techniques using the product streams from an aqueous reprocessing route with a focus on the well-known sol-gel conversion method. There is also reference to additional steps, post sol-gel convers ...

Woodhead Publishing2015

The suppression of isobaric contaminations is of growing importance for many scientific programs using radioactive isotopes produced at isotope separation on-line (ISOL) facilities, such as ISOLDE-CERN. A solid tungsten proton-to-neutron converter has been ...

Elsevier Science Bv2014

Polyurethane (PU)/acrylic hybrid particles with different PU contents were synthesized by miniemulsion polymerization and subsequently dried to give solid adhesive films. The morphologies of the particles and the morphologies and mechanical properties of t ...

Elsevier2014

The gamma-ray activity from short-lived fission products has been measured in fresh and burnt UO2 fuel samples after irradiation in a zero-power reactor. For the first time, short-lived gamma-ray activity from fresh and burnt fuel has been compared and fre ...

Total fission rate measurements have been performed on full-size boiling water reactor fuel assemblies of type SVEA-96 Optima2 in the framework of phase III of the light water reactor (LWR)PROTEUS experimental program at Paul Scherrer Institute. This paper ...

Amer Nuclear Soc2013

The present doctoral research aims at the appraisal of nodal core simulators used for the calculation of commercial boiling water reactor (BWR) cores, against measurements carried out at the Paul Scherrer Institute under the LWR-PROTEUS experimental progra ...

EPFL2012

The Supercritical-Water-Cooled Reactor (SCWR) is the Generation IV reactor concept most closely related to current light water reactors (LWRs). The SCWR builds on the vast experience with today's LWRs and supercritical coal-fired power plants. Water at sup ...

EPFL2012

In recent years, higher discharge burn-ups and initial fuel enrichments have led to more and more heterogeneous core configurations in light water reactors (LWRs), especially at the beginning of cycle when fresh fuel assemblies are loaded next to highly bu ...

EPFL2011

High resolution gamma-ray spectroscopy measurements were performed on 61 rods of an SCWR-like fuel lattice, after irradiation in the central test zone of the PROTEUS zero-power research reactor at the Paul Scherrer Institute in Switzerland. The derived rea ...
