The present volume in our annual review series reviews a wide range
of developments, giving a broad interpretation to the "technology"
of our title. Starting at the beginning, Science, we have the
review of basic nuclear physics data of Walker and Weaver for
reactor kinetics, particularly, there fore, delayed neutron data.
In the search for better and better accuracy, it is being realized
that this involves the closest scrutiny of fundamental data, given
to us here from the Birmingham school. Associated with this review
of data is the review from Italy by Professor Pacilio and his co
workers of the theory of reactor kinetics in the stochastic form,
and a valuable compilation of the theory underlying a wide range of
practical techniques. Tending more to technology come the papers by
Jervis, reviewing the application of digital computers to the
control of large nuclear power stations as developed in both the
united Kingdom and Canada, Pickman's review of the design of fuels
for heavy water reactors, and the account by Ishi kawa and Inabe of
the new Japanese Research Reactor Program, itself initially
directed largely to fuel element studies. The balance of the volume
is made up of more philoso phical contributions to the
practicalities of nuclear power."
