Assertion: heavy water | /r/HasAspect | low neutron absorption
Facets:
value: very
type: DEGREE
Source sentences:
text: Heavy water has very low neutron absorption, so heavy water reactors tend to have a positive void coefficient, though the CANDU reactor design mitigates this issue by using unenriched, natural uranium; these reactors are also designed with a number of passive safety systems not found in the original RBMK design.
