Abstract
- The ΣΣ intermediate-energy reference spectrum irradiation facility, operated until 1998 at the VVR-S Reactor from Bucharest, was put into operation at the Romania TRIGA Reactor. This paper presents the experimental devices developed for the ΣΣ system operating at the Steady State Reactor (SSR)-TRIGA core, including the monitoring system, and preliminary neutron characterization results. These results show that the spectrum characteristics are slowly deviating from those for the recommended ΣΣ spectrum. The high-energy neutron tail is slowly increasing, compared with the recommended ΣΣ spectrum and other similar facilities. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
