A detailed set of counting rate measurements has been taken in the exponential facility of the Nuclear Engineering Laboratory at the Athens National Technical University. The results were analyzed to obtain physical magnitudes necessary for basic heterogeneous reactor calculations and also to explain basic reactor physics concepts.
