This paper summarized in a first part the C/E comparison of UOx and MOx spent fuel inventory; improvements on U-Np-Pu build-up prediction, as well as Pu, are pointed out using the recent JEFF3.0 evaluations. In a second part, improvements in JEFF3.0 still required are emphasized; trends on Am(n,γ) crosssection are particularly detailed and then an increase by 15% ± 3% in the 0.01eV – 2eV range ...

This study investigated the length-weight relationships (LWRs) and condition factors (K) of three Cichlids viz., Sarotherodonmelanotheron, Coptodonguineensis hybrid x Coptodonzillii in small lagoons invaded by macrophytes from South-east Cote dIvoire. Fishes were caught monthly September 2017 to August 2019 using traps, gill nets, harpoons hawks. Standard length weight individuals taken nearest...

Morphometric characteristics, length-weight relationships (LWRs), and condition factors (K) were studied for five indigenous fish species belonging to different families (Barilius barila Hamilton, Cirrhinus reba Chanda nama Mystus bleekeri Day, Clupisoma garua Hamilton), from the River Ganga in Bihar, India. A total of 557 individuals collected seasonally September 2021 August 2022 using a mono...

Neotropius atherinoides locally known as Batasi fish and considered as freshwater small indigenous species (SIS) in Bangladesh. The present study describes the first complete, inclusive description of length-weight relationships (LWRs), length-length relationships (LLRs), condition factors (Fulton’s, KF; Relative, KR) and the breeding biology in the adjacent river of Chalon beel, Bangladesh. Th...

The nuclear fuel cycle is the series of stages that nuclear fuel materials go through in a cradle to grave framework. The Once Through Cycle (OTC) is the current fuel cycle implemented in the United States; in which an appropriate form of the fuel is irradiated through a nuclear reactor only once before it is disposed of as waste. The discharged fuel contains materials that can be suitable for ...

The ability to perform sensitivity analysis has been enabled for the nuclear fuel cycle simulator DYMOND through its coupling with design and toolkit Dakota. To test demonstrate these new capabilities, a transition scenario multi-parameter study were devised. represents partial from US fleet closed small modular LWRs fast reactors fueled by reprocessed used fuel. Four uncertain parameters in th...

The present study provides the first indication of life-history traits, including, population structure, growth pattern, condition factor, form factor (a3.0), size at sexual maturity (Lm), natural mortality (MW) and optimum catchable length (Lopt), three Ambassid (Chanda nama, Parambassis lala ranga) fishes from Mathabhanga River in southwest Bangladesh. A total 370 individuals were occasionall...

One of the six selected concepts to be part Generation IV nuclear reactors is Supercritical Light Water Cooled Reactor. The High-Performance Reactor (HPLWR) European version and it a very promising design. In recent years, interest in study thorium-based fuel cycles has been renewed its possibilities for current LWRs have evaluated. use fuels will fundamental future sustainability energy, since...

This paper presents the French contribution to the Joint Study of the IAEA’s International Project on Innovative Nuclear Reactors and Fuel Cycles (INPRO). It concerns the application of the INPRO methodology to a French scenario, on the transition from present LWRs to EPRs in a first phase and to 4th generation fast reactors in a second phase during the 21st century. The scenario also considers...
