3. A Chemical Perspective on the Tellurium Source Term in the Context of Severe Nuclear Power Plant Accidents
Abstract : In the event of a severe nuclear accident, one of the biggest concerns is the release of radioactive nuclides. Typically, the most volatile is likely to be released. One that is considered among the most volatile is tellurium. Additionally, health implications towards the public by tellurium can be by itself or the decay product iodine. READ MORE

4. Advances in Accident Tolerant Fuel Research by Doping of Uranium Nitride
Abstract : Nuclear energy is a carbon-free energy source alternative often considered less harmful to the environment than fossil fuels. However, accidents have shown that there are some safety concerns regarding nuclear energy that need to be assessed before it can be considered completely safe. READ MORE

5. Formation, partitioning and interactions of organic iodides under severe nuclear accident conditions
Abstract : During severe nuclear reactor accidents such as Chernobyl or Fukushima large amounts of radioactive iodine can be released in form of inorganic and organic iodine species into the environment. Volatile radioactive iodine species are harmful to human health when inhaled. READ MORE
