" E' particolarmente interessante
a questo proposito la testimionanza di Alvin Weinberg (premio nobel per la
fisica, forte sosotenitore di questa tecnologia), lucido n° 32 di questa
presentazione, che riassume cmq molti fatti interessanti dei MSR

" Why didn't the molten-salt system, so elegant and so well thought-out,
prevail? I've already given the political reason: that the plutonium fast
breeder arrived first and was therefore able to consolidate its political
position within the AEC. But there was another, more technical reason.
[Fluoride reactor] technology is entirely different from the technology of
any other reactor. To the inexperienced, [fluoride] technology is daunting.
It was a successful technology that was dropped because it was too different
from the main lines of reactor development. I hope that in a second nuclear
era, the [fluoride-reactor] technology will be resurrected "

Al di là di tutto è una lezione interessante, tante tecnologie pur potenti
ed innovative sono troppo "rivoluzionarie", almeno nel periodo in cui
vengono sviluppate, per essere adeguatamente capite "
