MIT Nuclear Engineering Students - Contact for Textbooks

In summary, The Prince says that he is one of Professor Allan F. Henry's students, and that they used a textbook called "Nuclear Reactor Analysis" by MIT. He also mentions that there is a newer textbook called "The Atomic Nucleus" by Robley Evans that is more commonly used. He also says that MIT uses a text called "Larmarswh" which is a standard text. He suggests that the most recent textbook used at MIT is probably "Duderstadt and Hamilton."

The Prince,

About 30 years ago; we used "Nuclear Reactor Analysis" by MIT's Allan F. Henry.
Great professor - too bad he's no longer with us.

I also recall "The Atomic Nucleus" by Robley Evans, also of MIT.

MIT - great place to study - what else do you want to know?

Hey Dr.Greenman,

Thanks for your quick responed. Yep , We use this textbook as well since our Professor is one of Prof. Henry's students . I really face some problems since we were using "Introduction to Nuclear Reactor Theory" by John Lamarch. I wounder if they use it in MIT? .

Most schools have web sites for each class, and these websites normally list required textbooks.

I'm one of Professor Henry's students myself. Perhaps I know your Prof.

Larmarswh is a standard text - practically everyone uses it - but not at MIT.
It was mentioned as a supplemental text.

I would bet they use something like Duderstadt and Hamilton now.
