That's 23× as large as the xenon poison after shutdown — nothing on our list beats it. That is about 100 dollars of reactivity.

What it means

How far from critical?

Dollars use β = 0.0065 for uranium-235. A plutonium-fuelled or high-burnup core has a smaller β, so the same pcm is worth more dollars.

The math

How to convert $ to ¢

To convert dollars to cents, multiply by 100.

Example: 100 $ × 100 = 10,000 ¢.

In the other direction, 1 ¢ = 0.01 $.
