- Thorium as a nuclear material: physics features and a safety analysis due to insertion of ThO2 in a PWR nuclear reactor fuel Clóves Fonseca Jr. Cláudio Luiz De Oliveira Eduardo Henrique Fernandes Fonseca Marcos Paulo Cavaliere De Medeiros Camila Oliveira E. Baptista Biología Thorium Dioxide Physics Features of Thorium Thorium As a Nuclear Material On this paper it is presented the main physics features of the thorium as a nuclear material and a security analysis due to insertion of ThO2 in a PWR nuclear reactor fuel by the determination and assessment of the sensitivity coefficients through the Standardized Computer Analyses for Licensing Evaluation - SCALE 6.1 nuclear code system. This work was motivated by the world tendencies to research and development of nuclear fuels based on thorium, because the limitations of uranium resources and the importance of nuclear energy to the humanity. 2020 artículo científico 2319-0612 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=722280907001 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=7222 Brazilian Journal of Radiation Sciences application/pdf Sociedade Brasileira de Proteção Radiológica - SBPR Brazilian Journal of Radiation Sciences (Brasil) Num.3 Vol.8
