Flashgold Fuel

Flashgold fuel is an RBMK fuel type used specifically to produce Balefire. It is more of a fancy breeder rod than actual fuel in a way, but it does produce a lot of heat and flux even without any external neutrons. This makes it quite dangerous since it can easily overheat even with few neutrons due to its high reactivity and somewhat low melting point. Despite that, it quickly loses power as it depletes and requires strong fuels to keep it depleting rather than buffer fuels.

It is unaffected by Xenon-135 poisoning.

Production
See: Flashgold

1 Gold-198 billet, 1 Antimatter cell, and 1 Ionized Particle cloud per billet.

Statistics
It has a flux function of: $$((x + 10) - (x + 10)^2 / 10000) / 100 * 50 [0;\infty]$$

The function is considered medium danger and is of the "Negative-Quadratic" type.

A Xenon-135 generation function of: $$x * 0$$

And a Xenon burn function of: $$x^2 * 50$$
