Over the last 50 years particle accelerators have evolved from simple devices to powerful machines, and will continue to have an important impact on research, technology and ...

The NEA held a one-day workshop for Radiation Transport Simulation Developers (RTS 2024).

SATIF community celebrated the 30^th anniversary during the 16^th SATIF workshop hosted on 28-31 May.

The NEA Expert Group on the Physics of Reactor Systems (EGPRS) organised a one-day workshop to foster exchanges among radiation transport simulation developers. The workshop aimed to facilitate excha...

Since the early 2000s there is an increasing demand from nuclear research, industry, safety and regulation for best-estimate predictions to be provided with their confidence bounds. Consequently, an ...

WPRS gathered 172 experts from 22 countries at the annual Benchmark Workshop.

Proceedings of the Fourteenth Workshop, 30 October-2 November 2018, Gyeongju, Korea.

The purpose of this prismatic High Temperature Reactor (HTR) benchmark is to provide a solution set that can be used in future code benchmarking and to better understand the effects induced by the pr...

This benchmark focuses on FHR reactors with plates and triso fuel. Several phases are planned, starting with neutronics on a simple fuel element simulation without burn-up, and gradually extending to...

NEA Working Party on Scientific Issues of Reactor Systems (WPRS) annual meeting, 15-19 February 2021.

The high-temperature gas-cooled reactor (HTGR) is a Generation IV reactor concept that uses a graphitemoderated gas-cooled nuclear reactor with a once-through uranium fuel cycle. This design permits ...

In 2013, the Expert Group on Reactor Physics and Advanced Nuclear Systems (EGRPANS) published a report that investigated fuel depletion effects in a pressurised water reactor (PWR). This was entitled...

Sodium fast reactors offer the most promising type of reactors to achieve such Generation IV goals at a reasonable time scale given the experience accumulated over the years. However, it is recognise...
