RSSESARDA Bulletin N.56 - This paper presents an outline of a proposed Swedish encapsulation and deposition system for spent nuclear fuel, possible national measures in support of international safeguards, and possible national measures implemented for domestic purposes.
ESARDA Bulletin N.56 - In this article, we discuss the usability of the monitoring programme for implementing national nuclear safeguards at the Olkiluoto site during the construction phase and, as regards detecting undeclared excavation, also during the operational phase.
ESARDA Bulletin N.56 - This paper presents a solution for the canisters’ authentication issue, using an innovative ultrasonic investigation of the internal gap between copper lid and canister tube.
ESARDA Bulletin N.56 - The purpose of the current study is to describe how the PNAR instrument helps strengthen the NDA system in the implementation of
the IAEA recommendations while using robust, relatively simple, hardware that can measure the assembly multiplication.
ESARDA Bulletin N.56 - This paper discusses the correctness of the fuel assembly declarations, translating into a verification (or determination) of the fuel parameters such as initial enrichment, burnup and cooling time.
ESARDA Bulletin N.56 - GOSSER’s main objective is the finalisation of the national Finnish concept for safeguarding the final disposal of the spent nuclear fuel. This concept and related R&D efforts are coordinated with the Finnish facilities, European Commission and the IAEA.
ESARDA Bulletin N.55, The International Journal of Nuclear Safeguards and Non-Proliferation
ESARDA Bulletin N.55 - This paper discusses potential IAEA use cases and implementation approaches, a novel method for modeling instrument response that couples Monte Carlo and deterministic transport methods, candidate signatures, and a method for extracting fissile isotope concentrations.
ESARDA Bulletin N.55 - This paper describes the analysis framework and metrics used to predict tomographer performance. It also presents the design of a “universal” GET (UGET) instrument intended to support the full range of verification scenarios envisioned by the IAEA.
ESARDA Bulletin N.55 - This work reports first about the efforts done at SCK•CEN on simulating detector response functions for different types of NDA instruments such as the Fork detector, the ForkBall detector and SINRD detectors.
