Which of the following reactors is operated at high neutron flux and low power level ?
Correct answer: B. Research reactor
- A. Breeder reactor
- B. Research reactor
- C. Heterogeneous reactor
- D. Liquid metal (e.g., molten sodium) cooled reactor
Explanation
Research reactors are designed to provide intense neutron beams for experiments, isotope production, and material testing, often at relatively low thermal power. Breeder and power reactors are primarily designed for fuel production or energy generation.
