सारांश	Reactor kinetics is the study of neutron population dynamics in a reactor core, originating from Fermi's first controlled chain reaction in 1942. It models power changes in response to control rod movements, temperature feedback, and accidental transients using coupled differential equations accounting for prompt and delayed neutrons, to ensure safe operation, predict transient behavior, and design control systems.	Criticality safety analysis is a systematic evaluation of fissile material systems to ensure nuclear chain reactions remain controlled, originating from Hahn and Strassmann's 1938 discovery of nuclear fission. It determines safe limits on fissile mass, concentration, geometry, and spacing using neutron transport calculations and experimental validation to prevent uncontrolled nuclear excursions in storage, processing, and transportation.
