Development and Verification of Activated Source Term Library Based on ENDF/B‐VIII.0
International Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.Developed by the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) in the United States, the ORIGEN code for computing irradiation and decay processes is one of the most widely used point depletion programs. However, the nuclear data that accompanies it, crucial for its application, has been measured and evaluated a long time ago.

Science and Technology of Nuclear Installations, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.The decommissioning of a nuclear power plant generates a large amount of radioactive waste that requires significant disposal costs. Consequently, it is an important factor in assessing decommissioning costs. The most effective approach to minimizing decommissioning waste is rapid classification based on radioactivity levels.

Converting energy from fusion into useful forms
, 2013 If fusion power reactors are to be feasible, it will still be necessary to convert the energy of the nuclear reaction into usable form. The heat produced will be removed from the reactor core by a primary coolant, which might be water, helium, molten ...

Neutrino Oscillations at Reactors: What Next? [PDF]
, 1999 We shortly review past and future experiments at reactors aimed at searches for neutrino masses and mixing. We also consider new idea to search at Krasnoyarsk for small mixing angle oscillations in the atmosheric neutrino mass parameter region.Comment: 9

Science and Technology of Nuclear Installations, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.Nuclear reactors are subject to strict safety standards due to the critical nature of operational safety. Detecting transients as fast and accurately as possible is essential to reactor safety especially to reduce the human error of operators. In order to enhance this process, artificial intelligence (AI) offers strong opportunities.

Qualitative and quantitative investigation of the propagation noise in various reactor systems [PDF]
, 2014 The space-dependent neutron noise, induced by propagating perturbations (propagation noise for short) is investigated in a one-dimensional homogeneous model of various reactor systems. By using two-group theory, the noise in both the fast and the thermal

Bayesian Uncertainty Quantification of Reflooding Model With PSO–Kriging and PCA Approach
Science and Technology of Nuclear Installations, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.To improve the process of best estimate plus uncertainty (BEPU) for nuclear safety assessment and calibration of thermal–hydraulic models for error reduction, inverse uncertainty quantification (IUQ) is proposed in recent years to quantify the uncertainty of model parameters in reactor program.

Economics of nuclear energy [PDF]
, 2012 While few people now believe that nuclear power would provide ‘power too cheap to meter’, there is still a common perception that nuclear power is a cheap source of electricity.
