found: Wikipedia, Aug. 4, 2011:subcritical reactor (A subcritical reactor is a nuclear fission reactor that produces fission without achieving criticality. Instead of a sustaining chain reaction, a subcritical reactor uses additional neutrons from an outside source. The neutron source can be a nuclear fusion machine or a particle accelerator producing neutrons by spallation. Such a device with a reactor coupled to an accelerator is called an Accelerator-Driven System (ADS))

A nuclear reactor which consists of a linear accelerator and a subcritical reactor target containing depleted, natural, or slightly enriched uranium or thorium, that produces a net amount of energy when supplied with neutrons generated by stopping a high-energy proton beam from a linear accelerator)
