The conversion ratio when it is greater than unity.
The ratio between the fertile fuel converted into fissile by neutron iradiation in a nuclear reactor and the fissile fuel consumed.
The ratio of the number of fissionable atoms produced in a breeder reactor to the number of fissionable atoms consumed in the reactor.Note :
If, for every 10 fissile nuclei which undergo fission in the fission chain reaction, 10 fertile nuclei are converted into fissile nuclei, the breeding ratio is said to be 1; if only 5 are converted for 10 consumed, the breeding ratio would be 0.5.
