Abstract
This report presents results of Feynman-cr measurements carried out in the training reactor of the Technical University of Budapest. It is s hown that Feynman-cr measurement can be successfully carried out at la rge subcriticality in a 100kW reactor. The results agree well with the theoretical predictions. Results are compared with value estimated fr om other experiments. Extrapolation of a value to critical state gives good agreement with other estimations. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd.
