Abstract
Evaluates the core physics behavior of boiling water reactor fuel at enrichments above the historical five percent limit and at extended burnup. Reports reactivity, isotopic depletion, and safety parameter results supporting licensing of higher enrichment and higher burnup fuel in the existing US light water reactor fleet.
