Prototype of Graphitic Core for Two-Fluid Molten-Salt Heat-Exchanger
Prototype of Graphitic Core for Two-Fluid Molten-Salt Heat-Exchanger
Yields of <sup>7</sup>Be, <sup>10</sup>Be, <sup>26</sup>Al, <sup>36</sup>Cl, <sup>41</sup>Ca, and <sup>53</sup>Mn for a chondritic chemistry and the spectral parameters p = 4 and <sup>3</sup>He/<sup>1</sup>H = 0.3. The yields are normalized to the experimental values, corresponding to the horizontal dotted line. For <sup>41</sup>Ca, we have adopted the initial value <sup>41</sup>Ca/<sup>40</sup>Ca = 3.9×10-7, more likely than the canonical ratio.
