Benchmark critical experiments containing rhodium
This paper describes a set of critical experiments that were done to gather benchmark data on the effects of rhodium in critical systems. Approach-to-critical experiments with arrays of low-enriched water-moderated and -reflected fuel were performed with rhodium foils sandwiched between the fuel pellets in some of the fuel elements. The results of the experiments are compared with results from two Monte Carlo codes using cross sections from ENDF/B-V, ENDF/B-VI, and ENDF/B-VII.
