Accelerator Driven Subcritical Reactors - Nifenecker, H (Institut des Sciences Nucleaires, France) a Meplan, O (Institut des Sciences Nucleaires, France) a David, S (Institut de Physique Nucleaire, France)

Describes the knowledge useful for understanding accelerator driven subcritical nuclear reactors (ADSRs), also known as hybrid reactors. This book discusses the general energy problem and the elementary physics of neutron reactors. It also examines the specifics of ADSR, from neutron sources to safety features.
