Pakistan Research Reactor-1 (PARR-1)

A 10 MW swimming pool type research reactor, the experimental facilities associated with the reactor are:

  • Central Flux Trap with a maximum thermal neutron flux of 1.5x1014.

  • Graphite Thermal Column provides thermal neutron flux ranging from 1.7x108 to 5.9x1011. 

  • Pneumatic Tubes for irradiation of small samples, at thermal flux around 3.0x1013 and fast flux around 3.8x1012. 

  • Horizontal Beam Tubes with thermal flux in the range 3.7x1013 to 8.5x1013. 

  • Gamma cell for bulk irradiation of samples and Hot cell, a properly shielded facility to handle highly radioactive samples.
