摘要 |
<p>This invention relates to a neutron amplifier assembly comprising an array of fissile material which is subjected to a primary neutron flux. According to the invention a thin layer (1) of fissile material is located on the inner surface of a hollow support cylinder (2) of moderator material, the fissile material layer thickness and the inner diameter of said cylinder being chosen such that the array is close to criticality.</p> |
