Nuclear emergency system

Air quality modelling at met.no consists of three different systems, all coupled offline to our numerical weather prediction (NWP) models. These are (1) a nuclear emergency system, (2) an urban air quality (AQ) forecasting system and (3) a longterm air quality chemical transport model routinely used in Europe to determine transboundary pollution fluxes.

The control of the nuclear and chemical reactivity in case of accidents is insured by the emergency shutdown systems. The safety function devoted to the thermal power extraction from the HYPP is directly linked to the control of the chemical reactivity because the kinetics of chemical reactions increases with the temperature. The HYPP must be cooled by emergency systems, water streaming on equipments, spraying systems, and so on.

The world of the nuclear spins is a true paradise for theoretical and experimental physicists. It supplies, for example, most simple test systems for demonstrating the basic concepts of quantum mechanics and quantum statistics, and numerous textbook-like examples have emerged. On the other hand, the ease of hattdling nuclear spin systems predestinates them for testing novel experimental concepts. Indeed the universal procedures of coherent spectroscopy have been developed predominantly within nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR and have found widespread application in a variety of other fields. - Richard R.

The full quantum mechanical study of nuclear dynamics in molecules has received considerable attention in recent years. An important example of such developments is the work carried out on the prototypical systems H3 [1-5] and its isotopic variant HD2 [5-8], Li3 [9-12], Na3 [13,14], and HO2 [15-18], In particular, for the alkali metal trimers, the possibility of a conical intersection between the two lowest doublet potential energy surfaces introduces a complication that makes their theoretical study fairly challenging. Thus, alkali metal trimers have recently emerged as ideal systems to study molecular vibronic dynamics, especially the so-called geometric phase (GP) effect [13,19,20] (often referred to as the molecular Aharonov-Bohm effect [19] or Berry s phase effect [21]) for further discussion on this topic see [22-25], and references cited therein. The same features also turn out to be present in the case of HO2, and their exact treatment assumes even further complexity [18],...
