Investigation of the properties of the nuclei used on the new generation reactor technology systems (Conference Paper)

Abstract

The application fields of the fast neutron are Accelerator-Driven subcritical Systems (ADS) for fission energy production and hybrid reactor systems. The technical design hybrid reactor and ADS systems potentialities require the knowledge of a wide range of better data and much effort. Thorium (Th) and Uranium (U) are nuclear fuels in these reactor systems. Lead (Pb), Bismuth (Bi) and Tungsten (IT) are the target nuclei in the ADS reactor systems. The Hartree-Fock (H-F) method with an effective interaction with Skyrme forces is widely used for studying the properties of nuclei such as binding energy, Root Mean Square (RMS) charge radii, mass radii, neutron density, proton density, electromagnetic multipole moments, etc. In this study, by using H-F method with interaction Skyrme RMS charge radii, RMS mass radii, neutron density and proton density were calculated for the 232Th, 238U, 207Pb, 209Bi and 184W isotopes used on the new generation reactor systems. The calculation results of charge radii have been compared with experimental data and obtained other results have been discussed for hybrid and ADS reactor systems.
