Abstract
Accurate subcriticality monitoring is one of the key points for the deployment of Accelerator Driven Subcritical Systems (ADS). For this reason, the horizon 2020 MYRTE project, mainly intended to support the development of the MYRRHA ADS facility, has included a series of reactor physics and reactivity measurement experiments, which have been performed at the VENUS-F reactor of SCK-CEN. In this work, some of the results of these experiments are presented, stressing the impact of spatial and energy effects in reactivity measerement and the need of developing correction methodologies.
