Abstract

To improve, in a nuclear reactor and a method for controlling the nuclear reactor, the efficiency of the nuclear reactor.SOLUTION: A nuclear reactor includes: a core composed of nuclear fuel; and a reactivity control device having a control unit provided with a neutron reflecting unit arranged outside the core and configured to reflect neutrons, and a neutron absorbing unit for absorbing neutrons. The neutron reflecting unit is disposed opposite to the outside of the core, and the neutron absorbing unit is movable between a first position not opposite to the core and a second position located between the core and the neutron reflecting unit.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3
