Mark XII, V-TO Physics Parameters

Description

Uranium-233 has previously been produced in a 4:2 mixed lattice of Mark VX-C two tube drivers and 82 lb. Mark V-TO ThO2 targets. A subsequent campaign is planned that will use a 3:3 lattice of Mark XII-A three tube drivers with similar ThO2 target assemblies. This report documents a parametric study of this second campaign, presenting the production rates and reactivities of various combinations of driver and target design. The purpose of this study was to provide background material for design of a 233U producing lattice
