PARR-I

A 10 MW swimming pool type research reactor, the experimental facilities associated with the reactor are:

Central Flux Trap with a maximum thermal neutron flux of 1.5x1014.

Graphite Thermal Column provides thermal neutron flux ranging from 1.7x108 to 5.9x1011.

Pneumatic Tubes for irradiation of small samples, at thermal flux around 3.0x1013 and fast flux around 3.8x1012.

Horizontal Beam Tubes with thermal flux in the range 3.7x1013 to 8.5x1013.

Gamma cell for bulk irradiation of samples and Hot cell, a properly shielded facility to handle highly radioactive samples.
