I just rewrote the article. My primary source was sections 7.11-7.13 in a book called "Nuclear Reactor Engineering" By Samuel Glasstone and Alexander Sesonske, Copyright 1963. I'm a bit unfamiliar with citing books on wikipedia so please feel free to help me. Vicarious 23:04, 4 March 2006 (UTC) reply

I heard it called "Wigner's disease", which I thought was a nicer name. I googled and Wigner effect is preferred now. Likebox ( talk) 20:51, 7 August 2008 (UTC) reply
