Female scientists and engineers pioneered the nuclear and radiological fields, with leaders and innovators such as Marie Skłodowska-Curie and Lise Meitner, among many others, establishing the foundat...

The international radiological protection community performed a major status review of the situation around the damaged Chernobyl reactor on the 10-year anniversary of the accident. Since then, studi...

The Nuclear Law Bulletin is a unique international publication for both professionals and academics in the field of nuclear law.

Le Bulletin de droit nucléaire est une publication internationale unique en son genre destinée aux juristes et aux universitaires en droit nucléaire.

All low-carbon solutions will be required to achieve the world's net zero targets. Nuclear energy has a role to play in meeting this need. A wave of innovation in small modular reactors (SMRs) is adv...

The Information System on Occupational Exposure (ISOE) is jointly sponsored by the Nuclear Energy Agency (NEA) and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). Since 1992, ISOE has provided a forum...

Independent safety regulation has been a hallmark of the global nuclear power sector from its beginnings. Industry and government have long understood the importance of a predictable and adaptable re...

Much has been learnt in the ten years since the Great Eastern Japan Earthquake and the subsequent accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, but significant challenges still remain.

This ...

NEA News is the professional journal of the NEA. It features articles on the latest nuclear energy issues concerning the economic and technical aspects of nuclear energy, nuclear safety and regulatio...

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...

The objective of the benchmark was twofold. First, the benchmark aimed to evaluate currently available computational approaches in an effort to understand the strengths and weaknesses of current ther...

The need to refine models for best-estimate calculations based on good-quality experimental data has arisen for various nuclear applications. One of the most extensive and valuable databases availabl...

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...

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 ...

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...

In the past decade, a large amount of effort has been made towards the direct simulation of the boiling transition (BT) for Boiling Water Reactor (BWR) fuel bundles. This international benchmark, bas...
