2. Startup neutron source - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Startup_neutron_source

   A startup neutron source is a neutron source used for stable and reliable initiation of nuclear chain reaction in nuclear reactors, when they are loaded with fresh nuclear fuel, whose neutron flux from spontaneous fission is insufficient for a reliable startup, or after prolonged shutdown periods. Neutron sources ensure a constant minimal ...

3. Neutron source - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutron_source

   Some isotopes undergo spontaneous fission (SF) with emission of neutrons.The most common spontaneous fission source is the isotope californium-252. 252 Cf and all other SF neutron sources are made by irradiating uranium or a transuranic element in a nuclear reactor, where neutrons are absorbed in the starting material and its subsequent reaction products, transmuting the starting material into ...

4. Neutron generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutron_generator

   Neutron generators are neutron source devices which contain compact linear particle accelerators and that produce neutrons by fusing isotopes of hydrogen together. The fusion reactions take place in these devices by accelerating either deuterium , tritium , or a mixture of these two isotopes into a metal hydride target which also contains ...

6. Radioisotope thermoelectric generator - Wikipedia

   These neutrons are produced by the spontaneous fission of plutonium-238. The difference in the emission rates of the metal and the oxide is due mainly to the alpha, neutron reaction with the oxygen-18 and oxygen-17 present in the oxide. The normal amount of oxygen-18 present in the natural form is 0.204% while that of oxygen-17 is 0.037%.

   The goal of small modular reactors is to create mini versions of larger nuclear fission generators at a lower cost and with more flexibility, Kairos CEO Mike Laufer told Yahoo Finance. But SMRs ...
