Parametric Uncertainties in Criticality Experiments with UF6 Model 8A Cylinders

Funding

This work is supported by UT Battelle/Oak Ridge National Laboratory under subcontract CW63112 with the University of Tennessee-Knoxville, under a larger DOE/NRC collaboration for Criticality Safety support for commercial-scale High-Assay, Low-Enriched Uranium (HALEU) fuel cycles (DNCSH) project. The authors also acknowledge the support provided by Catherine Percher, Carla McKinley, and Jacob Glesmann from Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory as part of our ongoing and broader collaboration to submit a formal benchmark for consideration by the International Criticality Safety Benchmark Evaluation Project (ICSBEP).
