Description

Considering a new way of being energy system, what is required is the decision making with balances of human security, environmental safeguards, energy security, proliferation risk, economic risks and etc. After FUKUSHIMA, there are needs to provide the information for transvaluation of what nuclear energy technology is. Therefore this study focuses on nuclear energy technology. In this paper, we analyze the information about the structure and history of past and the present research papers, which aim to clarify the characteristics of research trends and issues. Our results showed overview of the structure of R and D of nuclear energy technology by citation network analysis. We found that the impacts of Chernobyl accident to basic research papers are limited and research trends seem to be influenced by national R and D budget for nuclear power but not by national fund for basic science research.
