Energy transfer from a flat uranium slab to a fine wire via fission fragments.

- Abstract
Energy transfer from a flat fissile uranium slab to a fine wire via fission fragments is calculated. The rate of energy transfer versus the thicknesses of the slab and protecting aluminum film, as well as the wire-slab gap, is found. An expression for the absorption coefficient of the wire is derived, and the effect the thickness of the wire has on the energy transfer process is studied. The amount of the edge effect for a finite-size fissioner slab is demonstrated with calculations for vacuum conditions and for argon under a pressure of 0.25 atm.
