A number of approaches to the design of fusion-fission hybrid reactor blankets having a flat power distribution and constant energy multiplication are described. These include the use of reflectors, lithium control, spectral shift control, and inherent control. These approaches are illustrated for natural-uranium-fueled, light-water-moderated blankets.
