Lognormal-Based Sampling for Fission Product Yields Uncertainty Propagation in Pebble-Bed HTGR

Figure 1

Neutron induced fission process [21]. The fission products refer to the fission fragments after the emission of prompt neutrons. Independent fission yields (IFYs) characterize the fraction of a fission product produced before any radioactive decay, whereas cumulative fission yields (CFYs) describe the fraction of that produced product over all time after a fission.
