Basic Studies in the Field of High-temperature Engineering
Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development 2004; US$ 109.00In response to growing interest in high-temperature, gas-cooled reactors (HTGRs) in many countries and the need for improved materials for nuclear applications in high-temperature environments, the NEA organised the Third Information Exchange Meeting on Basic Studies in the Field of High-temperature Engineering. more...
Nuclear Energy Data
Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development 2004; US$ 35.00This new edition of Nuclear Energy Data, the OECD Nuclear Energy Agency?s annual compilation of essential statistics on nuclear energy in OECD countries, offers additional graphical information as compared with previous editions allowing a rapid comparison between capacity and requirements in the various phases of the nuclear fuel cycle. more...
Uranium 2003
Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development 2004; US$ 142.00The ?Red Book?, jointly prepared by the OECD Nuclear Energy Agency and the International Atomic Energy Agency, is a recognised world reference on uranium. This edition, the 20th, presents the results of a thorough review of world uranium supplies and demand as of 1 January 2003 based on official information received from 43 countries. more...
Computing Radiation Dosimetry - CRD 2002
Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development 2004; US$ 109.00Establishing reliable computational methods and tools for radiation dosimetry is of great importance today because of the increased use of radiation in a number of areas of science, technology and medical applications. Fields concerned include radiation protection, radiation shielding, radiation diagnostics and therapy, radiobiology, biophysics and... more...
Stakeholder Participation in Radiological Decision Making: Processes and Implications 2003 Edition
Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development 2004; US$ 39.00Since 1998, the OECD Nuclear Energy Agency has been organising a series of workshops to address the various aspects of stakeholder involvement in radiological protection decision making. These workshops have been instrumental in forging consensus and improving understanding of key issues in this area. more...
Nuclear Competence Building
Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development 2004; US$ 39.00In many countries, government R&D funding in the area of nuclear energy has been dramatically reduced or has disappeared altogether. At the same time, the profit margins of electricity generators have been severely squeezed. The combined effect has led to a reduction in technical innovation and the danger of the loss of technical competencies and skills... more...
Beneficial Uses and Production of Isotopes
Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development 2005; US$ 33.00Radioactive isotopes continue to play an increasingly important role in medical diagnosis and therapy, key industrial applications and scientific research. They can be vital to the health and well-being of citizens, and contribute to the world economy. more...
Innovation in Nuclear Energy Technology
Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development 2007; US$ 63.00Innovation has been a driving force in the successful deployment of nuclear energy and remains essential today for its sustainable future. As nuclear energy is an attractive option for ensuring diversity and security of energy supply, as well as lower global climate change risks, the way to continue this innovation is a key issue for industry and interested... more...
Building, Measuring and Improving Public Confidence in the Nuclear Regulator
Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development 2006; US$ 65.00An important factor for public confidence in the nuclear regulator is the general public trust of the government and its representatives, which is clearly not the same in all countries. Likewise, cultural differences between countries can be considerable, and similar means of communication between government authorities and the public may not be universally... more...
Perspectives on Nuclear Data for the Next Decade
Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development 2006; US$ 98.00With a declining number of nuclear data evaluators in the world and an increasing demand for high-quality data, there is a risk that evaluators will concentrate on producing new nuclear data to the detriment of developing new models and methods for evaluating existing data. In this context, it is essential to identify the basic physics issues that... more...
