Any free books about nuclear reactor stats?
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
What type of stats are you looking for? Satety stats? production stats? Cost? build stats? environmental stats?
 
Production and operation and environments
 
You might want to take a look at these:

http://world-nuclear.org/info/reactors.html

http://www.wano.org.uk/PerformanceIndicators/PI_Trifold/PI_2008_TriFold.pdf


There are many, many other sources depending on exactly what you are looking for. Statistics in the nuclear industry are remarkably well documented compared to most others.

Good luck.

Thread 'Energy Spectrum Attenuation'

Hello, I'm currently trying to compare theoretical results with an MCNP simulation. I'm using two discrete sets of data, intensity (probability) and linear attenuation coefficient, both functions of energy, to produce an attenuated energy spectrum after x-rays have passed through a thin layer of lead. I've been running through the calculations and I'm getting a higher average attenuated energy (~74 keV) than initial average energy (~33 keV). My guess is I'm doing something wrong somewhere...
