The possibility of significantly increasing the mean prompt neutron lifetime by using lead-208 is shown. It is proposed to place a layer containing a neutron absorber over the core in its reflector to control the reactor reactivity. It is shown that when using lead-208, the efficiency of this layer is noticeably higher, and the Doppler effect is enhanced than when using natural lead.
