Nuclear Reactor Physics

Beschreibung

Nuclear reactor physics is the core discipline of nuclear engineering. Nuclear reactors now account for a significant portion of the electrical power generated worldwide, and new power reactors with improved fuel cycles are being developed. At the same time, the past few decades have seen an ever-increasing number of industrial, medical, military, and research applications for nuclear reactors. The second edition of this successful comprehensive textbook and reference on basic and advanced nuclear reactor physics has been completely updated, revised and enlarged to include the latest developments.
Dieses Werk über Kernreaktorphysik wurde für die Neuauflage überarbeitet, korrigiert und erweitert. Mehr Informationen erwarten den Leser jetzt zur Wiederaufarbeitung von Kernbrennstoffen, zu Reaktoren der gegenwärtig erprobten Generation IV, zur Reaktoranalyse (auch computergestützt) und zur Transporttheorie. In den Anhängen D und F werden die Laplace-Transformation und Besselfunktionen ausführlicher erklärt.

From reviews of the first edition: "...Stacey...developed the material in Part I dealing with basic concepts and theory, in teaching undergraduate and first-year graduate students.... Part II is a more mathematically intense treatment of advanced topics." SciTech Book News "The first comprehensive book on the subject in 25 years." La Doc STI "I hope that the publication of this impressive text, whose strength lies in its breadth and it modernity, will accompany a renewed interest in nuclear power expressed through fission reactors."
