| Description | LXXV, 414 p. 1 illus : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Are you afraid of a nuclear reactor accident? Should you be? This book will arm you with the scientific knowledge necessary to make a rational and informed opinion on the subject, without having to be an expert in nuclear physics. Written so that a non-specialist can easily approach the highly technical aspects, it looks at all significant nuclear reactor accidents since the dawn of the Atomic Age and brings to light many crucial details that rarely, if ever, appear in the general media. Serge Marguet, an internationally renowned expert in reactor physics, breaks down the must-know technical aspects of numerous nuclear reactor accidents throughout history ??? both famous and unknown ??? from the first ever nuclear accident in Leipzig to the Chernobyl explosion and, finally, the Fukushima affair and its most recent developments. With many high-quality photographs and diagrams, this book is essential reading for anyone concerned about nuclear safety, curious about nuclear reactors, or simply interested in the history ??? and future ??? of nuclear power |

| Title | The Physics of Nuclear Reactors |
| Author(s) | Marguet, Serge |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2017. |
| Description | XXXII, 1445 p. 687 illus., 452 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This comprehensive volume offers readers a progressive and highly detailed introduction to the complex behavior of neutrons in general, and in the context of nuclear power generation. A compendium and handbook for nuclear engineers, a source of teaching material for academic lecturers as well as a graduate text for advanced students and other non-experts wishing to enter this field, it is based on the author???s teaching and research experience and his recognized expertise in nuclear safety. After recapping a number of points in nuclear physics, placing the theoretical notions in their historical context, the book successively reveals the latest quantitative theories concerning: ??????? The slowing-down of neutrons in matter ??????? The charged particles and electromagnetic rays ??????? The calculation scheme, especially the simplification hypothesis ??????? The concept of criticality based on chain reactions ??????? The theory of homogeneous and heterogeneous reactors ??????? The problem of self-shielding ??????? The theory of the nuclear reflector, a subject largely ignored in literature ??????? The computational methods in transport and diffusion theories Complemented by more than 400 bibliographical references, some of which are commented and annotated, and augmented by an appendix on the history of reactor physics at EDF (Electricit?? De France), this book is the most comprehensive and up-to-date introduction to and reference resource in neutronics and reactor theory |
