NDA funds Plutonium Ceramics Academic Hub with U.K. universities
The United Kingdom’s Nuclear Decommissioning Authority has announced that it will establish a Plutonium Ceramics Academic Hub with the Universities of Manchester and Sheffield. The announcement follows a decision by the U.K. government in January to immobilize the country’s inventory of civil separated plutonium at the Sellafield nuclear site, mitigating the material’s long-term safety and security risks.

This panel will summarize key NEA activities relevant to the reactor physics community. We'll delve into past and ongoing efforts of the Working Party on Scientific Issues and Uncertainty Analysis of Reactor Systems (WPRS), the Working Party on Nuclear Criticality Safety (WPNCS), and the Working Party on International Nuclear Data Evaluation Co-operation (WPEC). Panelists from NEA and collaborating institutions will share their experiences, insights, and lessons learned from years of coordinating these efforts. We'll also provide a closer look at some ongoing projects.
