The invention relates to a neutron reflector block. The neutron reflector block comprises a first portion and a second portion. The first portion has a first end face and oppositely located intermediate shoulders which are spaced from the first end face. The first end face and the intermediate shoulders are bounded by spaced side faces and spaced upper and lower faces.
