Hybrid soliton nuclear reactors: A model and simulation (encapsulated long living accelerator driven system)

We intend to explore the potential of Hybrid Soliton Reactors (Réacteur Hybride à Soliton, RHYS) for producing energy. In our case an encapsulated long living fission reactor is driven by a proton accelerator, who produces neutrons on a target. In a first part we give the mathematical approach of such a sub-critical reactor, as an extension of the “Soliton Reactor” which was recently proposed by different authors, Edward Teller, L.P. Feoktistov, and others (H. Sekimoto under the name “Candle reactor”). In a second part we give results of simulations and explore the possibilities to control such a system.
