Accelerator breeding of fissile materials

Description

The accelerator-driven breeder can extend an essential energy resource, fissile fuel for nuclear reactors, by a very large factor. Symbiotic breeders could be brought on line in a shorter period of time with favorable performance predictability. The economics of using accelerator breeding of fertile-to-fissile elements will become favorable as natural fissile material becomes scarce
