71Gas core reactor rocket — Gas core reactor rockets are a conceptual type of rocket that is propelled by the exhausted coolant of a gaseous fission reactor. The nuclear fission reactor core may be either a gas or plasma. They may be capable of creating specific impulses of …
72European Pressurized Reactor — The EPR (or US EPR for the United States specific design) is a third generation pressurized water reactor (PWR) design. It has been designed and developed mainly by Framatome (now Areva NP) and Electricité de France (EDF) in France, and Siemens… …
73CIRUS reactor — CIRUS (Canada India Research U.S.) is a research reactor at the Bhabha Atomic Research Center (BARC) in Trombay near Mumbai, India. CIRUS was supplied by Canada in 1954, but uses heavy water supplied by the U.S. (hence its name). It is the second …
74Subcritical reactor — A subcritical reactor is a nuclear fission reactor that produces fission without achieving criticality. Instead of a sustaining chain reaction, a subcritical reactor uses additional neutrons from an outside source. A reactor coupled to a particle …
75Advanced Test Reactor — The Advanced Test Reactor (ATR) is a research reactor at the Idaho National Laboratory. This reactor is primarily designed and used to test materials to be used in other, larger scale and prototype reactors. It can operate at a maximum power of… …
