Particle accelerators have evolved over the last decades from simple devices to powerful machines, and are having an increasingly important impact on research, technology and daily life. Today they h...

There is a consensus in the international community that geological repositories provide the necessary long-term safety and security to isolate long-lived radioactive waste. However, despite the tech...

Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) are gaining recognition among policymakers and industry players as a promising nuclear technology. SMRs can be defined as nuclear reactors with a power output between 10...

Recent interest in small modular reactors (SMRs) is being driven by a desire to reduce the total capital costs associated with nuclear power plants and to provide power to small grid systems. Accordi...

This publication on small modular reactors (SMRs) for mining is the first of a series of NEA case studies that assess the opportunities and challenges for SMRs to support decarbonisation of hard-to-a...

Au moment où des signes d'une renaissance de l'énergie nucléaire sont perceptibles à l'échelle mondiale, il est d'une grand importance de mieux comprendre comment la société civile perçoit la technol...

Communication with society on risks and benefits of nuclear energy is a key issue for policy makers. The study published in 2002 under the auspices of the Committee for Technical and Economic Studies...

While signs of a possible nuclear energy renaissance are visible worldwide, it is highly important to understand better the views of civil society on nuclear technologies, how their risks are perceiv...

The NEA Working Party on Nuclear Criticality Safety (WPNCS) established an Expert Group on Source Convergence in Criticality Safety Analysis (EGSCCSA) to explore the problems of slow convergence and ...

All national radioactive waste management authorities recognise today that a robust safety case is essential in developing disposal facilities for radioactive waste. To improve the robustness of the ...
