A set-up design including fissile<br />
target and modera<strong>to</strong>r<br />

With U target, neutron fluxes up <strong>to</strong> f=10 16 n/s/cm 2 can be reached.<br />
This opens a possibility of transmutation of long-lived radioactive waste,<br />
e.g. MA (Np, Am, Cm). These nuclei can be destroyed in (n,fission) process.<br />
Better data on fission cross sections are required.
