Reactivity determination in accelerator driven reactors using reactor noise analysis

Reactivity determination in accelerator driven reactors using reactor noise analysis

Feynman-alpha and Rossi-alpha methods are used in traditional nuclear reactors to determine the subcritical reactivity of a system. The methods are based on the measurement of the mean value, variance and the covariance of detector counts for different measurement times. Such methods attracted renew...
