  • Abstract
    A portable digital system for rapid on-line calculation of reactivity during nuclear plant physics testing has been designed and implemented. This system allows auxiliary data logging, formatting, and transmission to remote computer systems for further analysis. Provisions are made for operator displays as well as off-line computation within the system.
