      Reactor Physics

      Reactor Physics

      The division's objectives are to promote the advancement of knowledge and understanding of the fundamental physical phenomena characterizing nuclear reactors and other nuclear systems. The division encourages research and disseminates information through meetings and publications. Areas of technical interest include nuclear data, particle interactions and transport, reactor and nuclear systems analysis, methods, design, validation and operating experience and standards. The Wigner Award heads the awards program.

      Closing Indian Point makes N.Y.’s net-zero goal harder to reach

      With a blunt but indisputably accurate headline, an article from yesterday’s New York Times on the imminent closure of Indian Point makes it immediately clear what will happen when Unit 3, the nuclear plant’s last operating reactor, is shut down at the end of this month: The state of New York will be forced to rely more heavily on fossil fuels for electricity generation.

      Following the retirement of Indian Point-2 last April, the share of New York’s power coming from gas-fired plants rose to about 40 percent, from about 36 percent in 2019, the piece notes, adding that the share from renewables moved up only slightly, to about 30 percent.

Description

This text presents the theory and methods of prediction that are the heart of nuclear reactor safety.  Time-dependent reactor behavior is explained in both mathematical and physical terms.  This book also explains the logic behind the working formulas and calculational methods for reactor transients and illustrates typical dynamic responses.  The classical concept of point kinetics is developed in three steps with discussion of various solutions to kinetics problems.  Each chapter includes homework problems and review questions.
