Emphasis is placed on neutron interactions in various nuclear core and shield configurations along with the development, solution, and analysis of the neutron balance equation for various situations.

More than a dozen Japanese companies have invested a combined total of about USD80 million in the UK-based Core Power, which is helping develop a floating molten salt reactor nuclear power plant and ...

Core Power of the UK has announced that it will develop a "US-anchored" maritime civil nuclear programme that will "bring floating nuclear power to market by the mid-2030s". Mikal Bøe speaking at the ...

Westinghouse Electric Company and CORE POWER announced a new cooperative agreement for the design and development of a floating nuclear power plant (FNPP) using Westinghouse’s eVinci microreactor.

In addition to the fuel rods, there are shutdown rods inserted during transport to halt the nuclear reaction entirely. A rotating drum must also be moved aside for the core to activate.

Westinghouse Electric Co. and CORE POWER said the companies have formalized a deal for the design and development of a floating nuclear power plant (FNPP) using the Westinghouse eVinci microreactor.

so it can absorb all the extra heat generated in the nuclear core. Unlike water, the sodium doesn’t need to be pumped, because as it gets hot, it rises, and as it rises, it cools off.
