Fused salt power reactor study. Minutes of discussion meeting No. 8

H. G. MacPherson reported briefly on a meeting with the Reactor Development Division of the AEC, Washington. The purpose of the meeting was to acquaint them with the fused salt reactor (preliminary designs, tentatively selected components, controls, etc.) in order to gain support for the program for the coming year. The general attitude was not discouraging, although a bit skeptical, and the great need for work on out-of-pile and in-pile long-term loops was very apparent.
