Hello to all, i need some books, papers, related to nuclear reactors for research (e.g, classification , applications, spread worlwide, etc). Any sugestions are welcome. Thank for help!

SteamKing said:I do not kid you. You seem able to do some basic research on the subject. You obviously have an internet connection. If your efforts turn up some information which you do not understand, we would be happy to try to answer your questions. However, you should show some initiative and make at least a cursory effort at gathering some information.
What resources does one have?Stephan_doc said:Hello to all, i need some books, papers, related to nuclear reactors for research (e.g, classification , applications, spread worlwide, etc). Any sugestions are welcome. Thank for help!

A nuclear research reactor is a type of nuclear reactor that is used for scientific research and development. It is designed to produce and sustain controlled nuclear reactions for the purpose of studying nuclear physics, materials science, and other fields.
Nuclear research reactors work by using controlled nuclear reactions to generate heat, which is then used to produce steam and spin turbines to generate electricity. These reactors use fuel, such as enriched uranium, and control rods to regulate the rate of the nuclear reaction.
Nuclear research reactors have several benefits, including providing a safe and controlled environment for studying nuclear reactions, producing medical isotopes for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes, and training future nuclear scientists and engineers.
Yes, nuclear research reactors are designed and operated with strict safety protocols in place to ensure the protection of both people and the environment. These reactors are subject to rigorous safety inspections and regulations to minimize the potential for accidents or radiation exposure.
The main difference between a nuclear power reactor and a nuclear research reactor is their purpose. Nuclear power reactors are designed to produce electricity on a large scale, while nuclear research reactors are used for scientific research and not for commercial energy production. Additionally, research reactors tend to be smaller and use lower levels of enriched uranium compared to power reactors.
