Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:For Шаблон:One source Шаблон:Infobox reactor CROCUS is a research reactor at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, a research institute and university in Lausanne, Switzerland.

The uranium nuclear reactor core is in an aluminium container that measures Шаблон:Convert across with Шаблон:Convert-thick walls. The aluminum vessel is filled with demineralized light water to serve as both a neutron moderator and a neutron reflector.[1]

Power output is controlled either by adjusting the water level in the reactor—with a ±Шаблон:Convert level of control, or with the adjustment of two boron carbide (BШаблон:SubC) control rods—with a ±Шаблон:Convert level of finesse. The reactor has six separate safety systems: two cadmium shields and four storage tanks, any of which can shut down the reaction in less than a second.[1]

CROCUS has a license to produce Шаблон:Convert or a neutron flux of ~2.5 × 10Шаблон:Sup cmШаблон:SupsШаблон:Sup at the core's center.[1]
