This book is based on a one-semester course on Nuclear and Particle Physics that we have taught to undergraduate juniors and seniors at the University of Rochester. Naturally, the previous experience and background of our students determined to a large extent the level at which we presented the material. This ranged from a very qualitative and hand-waving exposition to one class that consisted …
The NG-T-3.7 nuclear energy series collection is a collection that discusses Managing Siting Activities for Nuclear Power Plants (NPP). The subject matter in this standard is divided into 6 chapters covering introduction, nuclear power program framework, management of siting activities, criteria for selecting and assessing NPP sites, methodology, and stakeholder involvement. This collection was…
This collection is a special collection of safety report series number 69. Published by IAEA in 2012. This collection is about comparison between IAEA GS-R-3 And ISO 9001:2008. Some of the topics discussed include a review of the two standards to their differences and correlations. Also equipped with a comparison table of the two in accordance with the contents of the two standards (MM). Key…

This report considers a variety of circumstances that may require corrective actions to be assessed or implemented at near surface disposal facilities. The circumstances leading to the corrective actions, or the corrective actions themselves, may be of either a technical or a non-technical nature. Methodologies that can be employed to implement effective solutions to problems are discussed, inc…
This is the third National Report by the Republic of Indonesia. As reported in previous National Report and Review Meeting, the decision of the Government of the Republic of Indonesia to ratify “the Joint Convention on the Safety of Spent Fuel Management and on the Safety of Radioactive Waste Management”, as ratified by the President Regulation No. 84/2010 on 28 December 2010, clearly demon…
This publication was produced under an IAEA technical cooperation project and includes information on: livestock feeding and breeding strategies in Asia; enteric methane emission mitigation strategies; a systems approach to sustainable livestock production and manure management; processing and handling of manure to reduce pollution and improve nutrient utilization; and field application and uti…
Cyclotrons are used for preparation of a wide variety of radionuclides that find application in single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) as well as in positron emission tomography (PET). This publication gives comprehensive guidelines for the planning and decision making processes and design and implementation of a cyclotron based radionuclide production facility. It will enable Membe…
A D value is the quantity of radioactive material which is considered a dangerous source. A dangerous source is one that, if uncontrolled, could result in death or a permanent injury which decreases that person’s quality of life. Various IAEA documents concerning emergency preparedness and safety and security of radioactive sources list D values for a limited set of radionuclides. This docume…
