Materials testing reactor
A materials test reactor (MTR) is a high power research nuclear reactor.
Examples
Materials testing reactors include:
- Dounreay Materials Testing Reactor, a Dido class reactor in the United Kingdom.
- ETRR-2, at the Nuclear Research Center in Inshas, Egypt.
- Jules Horowitz Reactor, under construction at the Cadarache nuclear facility in southern France.
- Research reactor in Petten, the Netherlands.
- PINSTECH National Laboratory (PNL) in Pakistan.
- Reactor Technology Complex of the Idaho National Laboratory in Idaho, United States.
- RV-1 nuclear reactor in Venezuelan Institute for Scientific Research, Venezuela
- SAFARI-1, outside of Pretoria, South Africa, also used to produce medical isotopes.
gollark: No, I mean in general, in higher-level languages.
gollark: You can just... not do that?
gollark: Even if that's true it is *much* harder to get good enough at assembly to work on it easily than it is to get good at python or whatever.
gollark: The assembly version is more complicated and harder to write/understand/maintain.
gollark: What, that if you meddle with a comparison and use a weird/flawed metric your thing looks better? Yes.
