Reactor period is the time is takes for a reactor's power to increase by a factor of e (2.71828).
chernobyl
Probable you think to a breeder reactor; this type of nuclear reactor produce more fissile material than it consumes.
ceramic can withstand high temperature
The Chernobyl reactor refers to the nuclear reactor at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in Ukraine, which suffered a catastrophic accident on April 26, 1986. During a late-night safety test, a sudden power surge led to explosions and the release of a significant amount of radioactive material into the atmosphere, resulting in one of the worst nuclear disasters in history. The event caused widespread environmental contamination and health issues, leading to the evacuation of nearby communities and long-term exclusion zones. The Chernobyl disaster has since become a symbol of the potential dangers associated with nuclear energy.
The reactor that exploded in Chernobyl was Reactor No. 4 of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant, located near the town of Pripyat in Ukraine. The explosion occurred on April 26, 1986, during a late-night safety test that went wrong, leading to a catastrophic release of radioactive materials. This disaster is considered one of the worst nuclear accidents in history, resulting in widespread contamination and long-term health and environmental impacts.
Nuclear reactor kinetics is the branch of reactor engineering and reactor physics and control that deals with long term time changes in reactor fuel and nuclear reactors.

yes, south Africa has a nuclear reactor.
Yes, the sun is a nuclear fusion reactor.
a nuclear reactor converts binding energy into heat. a nuclear power plant uses a nuclear reactor to generate electricity.
simply, the nuclear reactor is the source of heat (or steam) for the nuclear power plant.
A breeder reactor is one type of nuclear reactor, but not a type that is in general commercial use at the present time
I think you will find this in chemical engineering rather than nuclear. See link below for ideas to follow up.

The heart of a nuclear power plant is the nuclear reactor.
The last nuclear reactor has not been built yet.
