| Research Abstract |
Nuclear characteristics of a reactor with a large D_2O reflector was studied experimentally using the Kyoto University Critical Assembly (KUCA). The following experimental data were measured with high accuracy : reaction rate distributions of Np237 in the D_2O reflector. multiplication factors for cores with various D_2O reflectors, neutron flux distributions in a core and the reflector. It should be noted that Np237 samples prepared and employed in this experiment are very valuable because of the sample mass more than I mg. In the analytical study using these experimental data, the followings can be concluded : the MVP code using JENDL3.2 library overestimates multiplication factor of a core with D_2O moderator. the C/E values of both MVP and the SRAC-CITATION codes are about 1.2 for reaction rate of Np237 in a D_2O reflector.
