Fission reactor

Energy released in a single  fission event. Fission - fragments.  Ten U-235 fission examples.

How nuclear fission reactor works.

Induced fission.  Fission by fast and slow neutrons. Fissionable, fissile, and fertile nuclei isotopes.

Moderator. Why is required?

What materials are good moderators. The best practical moderator. More moderators.

Purpose of the control rods. Moderator vs Control rods.

What coolant do. Moderator and coolant options.

Pro and Con for nuclear fission energy. Cost considerations. Reliability.
