CA 2368547

This invention relates to a neutron amplifier assembly comprising an array of fissile material which is subjected to a primary neutron flux. According to the invention a thin layer (1) of fissile material is located on the inner surface of a hollow support cylinder (2) of moderator material, the fissile material layer thickness and the inner diameter of said cylinder being chosen such that the array is close to criticality.

Ensemble amplificateur à neutrons comprenant une couche de matière fissile qui est soumise à un premier flux de neutrons. Selon l'invention, une mince couche (1) de matière fissile est placée sur la surface interne d'un cylindre (2) de support creux du corps ralentisseur, l'épaisseur de la couche de matière fissile et le diamètre intérieur dudit cylindre étant sélectionnés de sorte que la couche soit proche de la criticité.
