Abstract In June, 1960, criticality was reached on the fast-neutron pulse reactor constructed at the United Institute of Nuclear Studies. The fast-neutron pulse reactor is designed to work under periodic pulse conditions at a mean power output of about 1 kw. The power pulses are developed from the multiplication of prompt neutrons during an interval in which the reactor is in a supercritical state. The half-width of the power pulses is 36 microseconds, and the pulse repetition frequency may be varied between the limits 8–80 pulses/sec.
