CANDU Safety R&D Status, Challenges, and Prospects in Canada
In Canada, safe operation of CANDU (CANada Deuterium Uranium; it is a registered trademark of Atomic Energy of Canada Limited) reactors is supported by a full-scope program of nuclear safety research and development (R&D) in key technical areas.

Effect of DUPIC Cycle on CANDU Reactor Safety Parameters
Although, the direct use of spent pressurized water reactor (PWR) fuel in CANda Deuterium Uranium (CANDU) reactors (DUPIC) cycle is still under investigation, DUPIC cycle is a promising method for uranium utilization improvement, for reduction of high ...

Canis STR‐Seq: A Universal Approach for Non‐Invasive Genetic Monitoring of Wolves and Coyotes [PDF]
We present a new, universal microsatellite genotype‐by‐sequencing assay for Canis species that allows for unambiguous allele calls, flags homoplasy for more accurate assignment tests, and improves genotyping output from low‐template DNA. We suggest, as others have done previously, that microsatellites are still effective, affordable, and sometimes ...

Abstract Introduction Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is the most common rheumatic disease in children and causes short‐ and long‐term disability. Optimal management requires pharmacologic and non‐pharmacologic interventions. Few studies have explored the youth and family experience of the management of JIA.

Recent Progress in Functional Nanomaterials towards the Storage, Separation, and Removal of Tritium
Tritium is a prime fuel to generate fusion power, but its storage and separation in pure form are major challenges in nuclear industries. This review discusses recent progress and main research trends in hydrogen isotope storage and separation while emphasizing tritium using metal hydrides, nanoporous zeolites, and metal organic frameworks (MOFs) and 2‐

A methodology to designate radiation‐controlled areas in decommissioning nuclear power plants
Five steps for designating decommissioning radiation‐controlled areas in decommissioning nuclear power plants. Abstract Kori Unit 1, which was permanently shut down in 2017, is expected to be the first decommissioned commercial nuclear power plant (NPP) in Korea.

This review paper provides insights into the corrosion mechanism of nickel‐based alloys in aqueous high‐temperature environments. A good knowledge of the effect of alloying elements such as chromium, molybdenum (+tungsten), and copper on the corrosion and oxide formation of nickel‐based alloys is explored in this paper. Abstract Nickel‐based alloys are

In CANDU reactors, shim operation is used when the online refuelling capability becomes temporarily unavailable. Adjuster rods, normally in‐core to provide flux flattening, are withdrawn in sequence to provide additional reactivity as the fuel is depleted.

Conceptual Design of a Novel Megawatt Molten Salt Reactor Cooled by He‐Xe Gas
He‐Xe gas‐cooled micro‐molten salt reactor (HX‐micro‐MSR) is a novel reactor concept that integrates the technologies of molten salt reactor and closed Brayton cycle (CBC), which has a more compact structure compared with the other types of micro‐MSRs.
