Investigation of isotopically tailored boron in advanced fission and fusion reactor systems /

This research examines the use of B^11, in the form of metallic boron and boron carbide, as a moderating and reflecting material. An examination of the neutronic characteristics of the B^11 isotope of boron has revealed that B^11 has neutron scattering and absorption cross sections favorably compara...
