Nuclear renaissance

One simple message is that readers must not forget that much of the European nuclear renaissance will occur in the New Europe . Experiences gained there will be every bit as valid as those gained in Finland, France and the UK and in some cases may act as better pointers to the future than the more often studied Western examples. [Pg.185]

The renewed interest in nuclear energy and the international growth of nuclear electricity generation do not equate—and should not be equated— with increasing proliferation risks. Indeed, the nuclear renaissance presents a unique opportunity to enhance the culture of nonproliferation. [Pg.389]

The GFR concept is beyond contemporary nuclear power technologies. The 2002 technology roadmap quaUhed GFRs on the basis of their potential robust operational domain. The analysis and recommendations have been deeply rooted in the 2000s era nuclear renaissance expectations. [Pg.93]

The civil nuclear industry, which wishes to profit from the so-called nuclear renaissance, and those who would promote the substitution of nuclear power for the declining attractions of the hydrocarbon-based economy have a duty to ensure that the separation of the benefits to civil society of civil nuclear power from the temptations of nuclear arms are maintained. Systems of control are not impossible to devise and are significantly easier to monitor than reductions in CO2 emissions through... [Pg.567]

By the year 2010, the impact of the event had diminished somewhat, and, given the increased cost of conventional fuels, something of a nuclear renaissance was tmder way. However, it seems likely that the Fukushima Dai-ichi accident (see p. 71) will nip this renaissance in the bud. [Pg.56]

Fundamental to the support for nuclear energy is the new attitude in the industry itself. Nuclear electricity producers are adapting well to the onset of competition in the marketplace. We are seeing consolidation, nuclear plant purchases, and the pursuit of license renewals. In this new environment, the U.S. nuclear industry is entertaining something of a renaissance and beginning to take credit for its accomplishments. [Pg.108]

In addition, this procedure was quite tedious and time consuming. Therefore, in recent years when physical methods for assaying molecules in mixtures—methods such as nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), gas chromatography, and others—have become available, a renaissance in the study of redistribution reactions has taken place. These methods allowed a rapid, quantitative, and precise determination of all of the reaction products present in a mixture. Also, equilibrium reactions could be carried out in much smaller sample sizes, thus permitting the study of exotic, hard-to-obtain compounds. Redistribution reactions—the kinetics as well as the equilibria—can now be measured directly in sealed NMR tubes. Furthermore, the relatively recent widespread availability to chemists of high-speed computers, in addition to these modern analytical tools, has facilitated the use of the appropriate mathematics even when highly complicated. [Pg.173]

It can be said with confidence that lasers revitalized, if not resuscitated, studies of the atom. Atomic ph) ics was one of the most active areas of physical research following the creation of quantum mechanics. Already in the 1930s, however, nuclear physics was rising to prominence and after World War II, particle physics and a little later condensed matter physics became dominant areas of interest. The laser provided a new tool for precision studies of atoms, spurring a genuine renaissance in atomic physics about 1970. Precision measurements of the Rydberg constant were a part of this resurgence of physicists interest in atoms. [Pg.203]

In addition to the nuclear plant orders in US states which are still regulated, some announcements of nuclear projects by non-vertically integrated producers in liberalized US markets in 2006-07 seemed to signal the renaissance of nuclear orders in such markets in a merchant framework. The rationale to invest in nuclear build in liberalized markets lies in the opportunity to earn potentially greater revenues than under the cost of service regulation (Lacy, 2006). As well as the South Texas Project (STP) which is studied next, four other projects have been announced in these liberalized markets. ... [Pg.136]

The recent renaissance of dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) provides an extremely promising approach for sensitivity enhancement [87—89]. It borrows the large Boltzmann polarization from unpaired electron spins of free radicals to boost the NMR signal. DNP experiments have been performed on quadrupolar nuclei such as [90], " N [91], [92,93],... [Pg.23]
