Once irradiated or “spent” nuclear fuel is unloaded from a reactor it is usually stored at the reactor site for between five and ten years. It is then ready for long-term storage or for reprocessing ...

Several applications of interest in nuclear criticality safety involve random media, which are media where the geometrical and/or material properties can only be described by assigning some probabili...

国家内部和国家之间核设施退役成本估算的格式、内容和实践存在很大差异。这些差异自有其正当理由，但也会使审查估算值的过程变得复杂，估算值本身也难以论证。因此经济合作与发展组织核能署、国际原子能机构和欧盟委员会联合倡议列出退役成本的标准清单，可以直接用于成本估算或将估算值转换为标准的通用结构便于比较。本报告结合迄今为止积累的经验，更新了早期1999年公布的条目。修订后的成本分项结构旨在体现退役项目计划...
