Description

The MARIA reactor, pool-type light -water cooled and beryllium moderated nuclear research reactor was used to evaluate the 233U breeding during the experimental irradiation of the thorium samples. The level of impurities concentrations was determined using ICP-MS method. The associated development of computer programs for analysis of application of thorium in EPR reactor consist of PC version of CORD-2/GNOMER system are presented. (authors)
