Accelerator Driven Systems (ADS)146BARC HIGHLIGHTS Reactor Technology & Driven Reactor SYSTEMSThe Accelerator Driven system (ADS) is a new type of reactorwhich produces power even though it remains sub-criticalthroughout its life. All operating reactors in the world are critical reactors - which means that the number of neutronsproduced by fission is exactly balanced by the number lost byleakage and absorption by various materials in the balance is responsible for maintaining a constant reactorpower at any desired level. Sub-critical reactors produce fewerneutrons by fission than are lost by absorption and leakage, andrequire an external supply of neutrons to maintain a constantreactor power.
