XLIII ACADEMIC SPACE CONFERENCE: dedicated to the memory of academician S.P. Korolev and other outstanding Russian scientists – Pioneers of space exploration.
Two possible physical concepts of cosmic nuclear power plants are considered. One of them is a fast nuclear reactor cooled by Na-K-Cs alloy. The fuel, coolant, and reactor reflector contain long-lived radioactive waste from nuclear power (including m

2017 8th International Conference on Recent Advances in Space Technologies (RAST).
In space applications, one of the main issues is to obtain an efficient power supply. There are various types of energy sources to produce electrical power which is needed for the operation of all active spacecraft systems and subsystems. Due to the
