By Elmer E. Lewis

Fundamentals of Nuclear Reactor Physics deals a one-semester therapy of the necessities of ways the fission nuclear reactor works, some of the methods to the layout of reactors, and their secure and effective operation . It offers a transparent, normal review of atomic physics from the point of view of reactor performance and layout, together with the series of fission reactions and their power release.

It presents in-depth dialogue of neutron reactions, together with neutron kinetics and the neutron power spectrum, in addition to neutron spatial distribution. It contains plentiful worked-out examples and over a hundred end-of-chapter problems.

Engineering scholars will locate this applications-oriented process, with many worked-out examples, extra available and extra significant as they aspire to develop into destiny nuclear engineers.
