Description
Fast breeders operate with fast, hardly slowed down neutrons. They are the only reactor type which produces by a breeding process more fission materials than it uses. On account of this property they are of great importance for long-term nuclear fuel supply. (orig.)
Abstract (German)
Die Schnellen Brutreaktoren arbeiten mit schnellen, nur wenig gebremsten Neutronen. Sie koennen als einziger Reaktortyp durch Brutprozesse mehr Spaltstoff erzeugen als sie verbrauchen. Wegen dieser Eigenschaft sind sie fuer die langfristige Versorgung mit Kernbrennstoffen von grosser Bedeutung. (orig.)Additional details
