The NEA has studied multiple recycling issues associated with various reactor systems fuelled with mixed-oxide (MOX) and published a series of computational physics benchmarks. This has led to improv...

The quality of the isotopic composition of plutonium fuel degrades as the number of recycles increases in thermal reactors, requiring an increase in the total loading necessary in mixed plutonium-ura...

Studies on fast reactors have historically concentrated on their capability of using plutonium produced in thermal reactors as initial fuel, and subsequently their capacity to produce electricity whi...

Since 2007, the NEA has organised a series of workshops on structural materials for innovative nuclear systems (SMINS). The fifth meeting, held from 8‑11 July 2019 in Kyoto, Japan, was hosted by Kyot...

Overview of the 7th Symposium on Reactor Surveillance and Diagnostics (SMORN-VII), 19-23 June 1995, Avignon, France

The Expert Group on Reactor Physics and Advanced Nuclear Systems (EGRPANS) was created in 2011 to perform specific tasks associated with reactor physics aspects of present and future nuclear power sy...
