The Impact

ABSTRACTThe potential value of Partitioning/Transmutation (P/T) strategies for high-level nuclear waste management has been investigated (one would be tempted so say “periodically”) since 1970. The basic physics phenomena are well understood, and scenarios for the fuel cycle can be imagined. However, the criteria to judge the impact of P/T are matter for discussion (and controversy). Moreover the relation to disciplines other than reactor physics can be significant (e.g. innovative fuels and Actinide chemistry).A number of key issues are revisited here and will be discussed in some detail.

Excellent Work

The symposium “Scientific Basis for Nuclear Waste Management XVII” was held in June 15 – 19, 2003, in Kalmar, Sweden. The symposium, which was officially opened by the County Govenor of Kalmar County, Sven Lindgren, attracted 222 participants from 21 countries. Nearly 200 papers were presented during the three days of scientific sessions.Organizing a symposium this size requires the assistance of a large number of people involved both in establishing the scientific program and in planning and executing the practical organizational arrangements. Our window to the world, the symposium's homepage, was continuously kept up to date through the excellent work of Jonny Rönnfjord.
