Subcritical Multiplication

Subcritical Multiplication is a reactor physics phenomenon in which neutrons produced by fission undergo multiplication through successive generations in a subcritical nuclear reactor core, where the effective neutron multiplication factor is less than one, resulting in a self-sustaining but decaying neutron population in the absence of an external neutron source.
