The analysis of neutron kinetics relies on the knowledge of adjoint-weighted kinetics
parameters, which are key to safety issues in the context of transient or accidental reactor …

The first thanks go to my guide, my counselor, and my colleague: my supervisor Pierre
Leconte. He saw in me qualities I was not aware of having, and pushed me at the limits of …

Power spectral density (PSD) methods are well-known and widely used for the analysis of
neutron noise experiments and obtaining the reactor's integral kinetic parameters, ie, the …

The contribution of the thermal scattering law of hydrogen in light water to isothermal
temperature reactivity coefficients for UOX and MOX lattices was studied in the frame of the …

In the framework of an international collaboration, teams of the PSI and CEA research
institutes measure the critical decay constant (α 0= β/A), delayed neutron fraction (β) and …

The evaluation of the experiments of the effective delayed neutron parameters and reactivity
performed in the IPEN/MB-01 research reactor facility has been successfully accomplished …

In the framework of an international collaboration, the critical decay constant (α0= β/Λ), and
delayed neutron fraction (β) of the CROCUS reactor were measured by teams of EPFL/PSI …

The MCNP6 code contains numerous features, one of those is to determine the delayed
neutron parameters. The accuracy of calculated delayed neutron parameters affect the …

A method for determining the effective delayed neutron fraction βeff using in-pile reactivity
