In section 2 we introduce the formalism of sterile neutrino oscillations and fix the parametrization of the mixing matrix. We then consider (ν– ) e disappearance data in section 3, discussing the reactor and Gallium anomalies. Constraints from (ν– ) µ disappearance as well as neutral-...
During Three Mile Island about half of the core (including fuel) melted and fell to the bottom of the pressure vessel [1]. But it didn’t melt through the steel pressure vessel – in fact it only melted about 5/8 of an inch through the wall.[2] (A typical pressure vessel is ~6 ...

Control rods are of neutron-absorbing material that, when inserted into the core, can slow or even stop the chain reaction, by preventing enough neutrons from striking uranium atoms. They can be thought of as the "throttle" of the nuclear reactor. The tsunami that struck Fukushima was ...
