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: It's a very rare feature because few people actually need it for anything ever.
gollark: Surprisingly, no.
gollark: Also it has HDMI input for some reason, which is... nice?
gollark: Well, it's apparently about 2/3 the performance of my laptop.
gollark: But it's exciting! SBCs with this might hit the market in less than a year!
