Looking Through the Glass Clearly: Reviewing 30 years of Reactor Physics at Pickering

Abstract

The central problem in reactor physics is the determination of the neutron flux. The purpose of this paper is to summarize the experimental basis of reactor physics at Pickering. We will review experimental data obtained over 30 years of operation and examine the extent to which such data and reactor testing can be used to confirm the adequacy of our theoretical understanding of Reactor Physics.
