Keywords:subcritical, reactivity estimation, pulsed neutron source method, KUCA, kinematic parameter

As a part of the development of a new reactivity estimation method, we carried out an experiment in a subcritical system at the A reactor of the Kyoto University Critical Assembly (KUCA) and estimated the reactivity and the kinematic parameter βeff/l.
