Национальное управление по ядерной безопасности (NNSA) Министерства энергетики (МЭ) достигло всеобъемлющего соглашения об урегулировании с компанией «MOX Services» и ее материнскими компаниями, чтобы разрешить все вопросы закрытия контракта, относящегося к проекту установки по производству смешанного оксидного топлива (МОКС-топливо) в Саванна-Ривере (Айкен, штат Южная Каролина).
Закрытие контракта по установке для производства МОКС-топлива
On September 9, 2019 the world’s only floating power unit (FPU) that left Murmansk on August 23 together with the Dickson icebreaker and two towboats reached town of Pevek, Chukotka Autonomous Region, ahead of schedule. On September 14 an official welcoming ceremony took place in Pevek.
The ‘Akademik Lomonosov’ Floating Power Unit has arrived at the ...
Time-series analysis methods are commonly used in many research areas for extracting useful information related to the structure and the characteristics of the analysed system. Inferring the underlying interconnections between signals of complex systems such as the human brain, social networks, stock markets, etc., is a challenging and complicated task. […]
Identifying a disturbance root-cause from … noise!
One of the broad research areas at PSI covers the topic of energy. Part of that, in turn, is the research for nuclear energy and safety. And one of the research groups based here is engaged with nuclear fuels. Johannes Bertsch is the head of this group and investigates the […]
Cladding tubes and their properties
Proton irradiations of lead, tantalum, and tungsten targets were performed twenty years ago at the SATURNE II synchrotron of the Laboratorie National Saturne (LNS) at Saclay. Due to a long time after irradiation, the short lived reaction products had already decayed. These targets were used to determine the production cross […]
Nuclear data for nuclear installations: Radiochemistry improves the precision of ...
Shortly after the Big Bang, radioactive atoms of the type beryllium-7, among others, came into being. Today, throughout the universe, they have long since decayed and do not occur naturally, in contrast to their decay product lithium. Now researchers at the Paul Scherrer Institute PSI have helped to better understand […]
Material from PSI helps to check inconsistencies in the Big ...
The future of the spent nuclear fuel (SNF) is the focus of a large number of recent studies regarding intermediate and long-term storage. Three quantities are of prime importance considering the fuel itself: its long-lived radioactivity content (actinides and fission products), heat generation (also called decay heat) and radiation level […]
Consistent criticality and radiation studies of Swiss spent nuclear fuel: ...
More than 220 representatives from science and research, authorities and industry met this week in Cologne for this year’s EUROSAFE. Participants from more than 28 countries came together at the conference of the European Technical Safety Organisations Network (ETSON) to discuss current topics related to the safety of nuclear installations, […]
EUROSAFE 2019: International Conference on Nuclear Safety in Cologne
18 ноября в Агентстве природных ресурсов и энергетики (Agency for Natural Resources & Energy – ANRE) Министерства экономики, торговли и промышленности Японии (METI) состоялось заседание комитета, посвященное обращению с очищенной загрязненной водой на АЭС «Фукусима-I». Комитет обсудил вопросы хранения и удаления очищенной воды после того, как компания «Tokyo Electric Power […]
