A control rod for a nuclear reactor comprising a number of absorber plates (13-16) which are connected to each other along a center line on the control rod and which are each provided with a plurality of bored channels (18b), which extend at least substantially perpendicularly to the center line of the rod, contain boron carbide or other absorber material which swells upon irradiation and are sealed off from communication with the surroundings of the control rod. Within at least one region of an absorber plate, each channel is arranged at a smaller distance to an adjacent channel than to the surface of the absorber plate. Preferably, each channel within the stated region of the absorber plate is arranged at a smaller distance to the adjacent channel on one of its sides than to the adjacent channel on its other side. |
