Schematic of the High Flux Beam Reactor at the Brookhaven National Laboratory (USA). The central core region (48 cm in diameter and 58 cm high) contains 28 fuel elements in an array surrounded by an extended D2O moderator/reflector region. The diameter of the reactor vessel is approximately 2 m. All but one of the beam tubes are tangentially oriented with respect to the core. The cold neutron source is located in the H9 beam tube.
