Safety and Security of Radioactive Sources: Maintaining Continuous Global Control of Sources throughout Their Life Cycle. Proceedings of an International Conference
AbstractAbstract
[en] Information technology has a crucial role for the establishment an effective dialogue with the general public on issues related to the safety and security of radioactive sources. Taken note, Ukraine possesses radioactive sources all around its territory. The distribution of the information regarding potential hazards from inappropriate utilization of such sources as well as inadequate actions when such sources are found represents great importance. Informing the general public on these issues would facilitate the awareness raising process, which at the end would help to protect the population against potential consequences of radioactive exposure. One of the ways to address the problems with radioactive sources, especially with the ‘orphan’ sources, is to outreach to the population and provide them with the opportunity to contact relevant experts from competent authorities via web resources. Such web recourse was created within the joint Ukrainian–Swedish project on information support. The web site, UAtom.org, works as an additional source of reliable information concerning nuclear safety, nuclear security and non-proliferation issues and is a useful tool for conducting constant dialogue between competent experts in the field of safety and security of radioactive sources and the general public to resolve the challenges referenced in the paper.

AbstractAbstract
[en] The Republic of Slovakia has started to build up a new environmental radioactivity measuring network. To fulfill the challenging requirements concerning measuring range, energy dependence, and accuracy in that network, a new dose rate detector FHZ 621 B has been developed. The FHZ 621 B proportional detector is based on the well experienced FHZ 621 A, an intelligent environmental dose rate detector with a built-in microprocessor. The new design of the electronic circuitry and an improved data analysis provide two main features: Firstly the upper limit of the measuring range has been extended to 1 Sv/h and secondly even in the case of extremely high dose rates of 100 Sv/h and more the displayed value will remain at its maximum level. The excellent energy response of 30 keV - 1.3 MeV over the entire measuring range and the high accuracy even in case of environmental background measurements have been fully retained

AbstractAbstract
[en] Dialogue with you in the given audience was to be begun with accent on a certain similarity in fields of activity. You are engaged in exotic conditions of kernels. We think that similar civil structures exist in other regions of Russian Federation. It is characteristic both for Department as a whole, and for its structures, for example, such as management of radiation safety on which work it will be informed hardly later. It speaks, mainly, that our district, as well as Russia as a whole, aspires to be the civilized, advanced community adequating to the world standards

AbstractAbstract
[en] Entering a new fuel market is not only about signing a fuel contract. Entering a fuel market that has no previous experience of mixed cores is even more challenging. Westinghouse has previously presented the work performed in the UNFQP program, where personnel from the CRCD were trained in core engineering and design at Westinghouse facilities in the US. The program provided Energoatom with an independent partner for licensing and core engineering activities in Ukraine. In addition to develop and license a compatible fuel design, there are many other factors that need to be addressed in order to be able to load and operate fuel from a new vendor. A common licensing approach for mixed cores in most European countries is that the new vendor demonstrates, by tests and analysis, that their fuel design meets the criteria of the existing safety evaluation. Hence, a new full safety evaluation is not required when fuel from a new vendor is loaded. Transport containers have to be licensed and tested to ensure compatibility for each transport route and at each site. Inspection and repair equipment need to be flexible to allow for various fuel designs. Core monitoring system is another area to consider. The system needs to be able to model different fuel designs. If the core monitoring system has the capability to model different fuel designs, the utilities or its independent partners should have the competence to set up the models. Westinghouse experience with all of these various aspects related to expanding on the VVER fuel market will be further developed in this paper.

AbstractAbstract
[en] The study tries to assess the risk of nuclear terrorism in the light of recent developments in the area of nuclear weapons proliferation, and to develop suggestions of how to cope with existing challenges. First of all the term of ''nuclear terrorism'' is defined and differentiated from other forms of nuclear crimes. In a second step the attempt is made to compile the findings and assessments of the past on the problem of nuclear terrorism. Since, as a rule, a threat potential is composed of 'intentions' and 'capabilities', a third part is dedicated to terrorist intentions and studies the degree of probability of terrorists considering nuclear weapons an appropriate means for their aims. In connection with 'capabilities' it is scrutinized whether terrorist groups will be able at all to procure, design or initiate nuclear warheads. This leads to the question as to which consequences result from nuclear safety shortcomings - in particular in Russia - with a view to nuclear terrorism. Based on the preceding considerations, several proposals for coping with the danger of nuclear terrorism are made. (orig./HP)

Die Studie versucht, die Gefahr des Nuklearterrorismus im Licht der juengsten Entwicklungen im Bereich der Kernwaffenproliferation zu bewerten und einige Vorschlaege zur Bewaeltigung der anstehenden Herausforderungen zu entwickeln. Dabei wird zunaechst der Begriff des ''Nuklearterrorismus'' definiert und von anderen Formen nuklearer Kriminalitaet abgegrenzt. In einem zweiten Schritt wird versucht, die in der Vergangenheit erarbeiteten Erkenntnisse und Einschaetzungen zum Problem Nuklearterrorismus zusammenzutragen. Da sich ein Bedrohungspotential in der Regel aus Intentions und Capabilities zusammensetzt, widmet sich ein dritter Abschnitt den terroristischen Intentionen und untersucht, wie wahrscheinlich es ist, dass Terroristen Kernwaffen als geeignete Mittel fuer ihre Ziele ansehen wuerden. Im Zusammenhang mit den Capabilities wird viertens hinterfragt, ob Terrorgruppen ueberhaupt in der Lage sein werden, Kernsprengsaetze zu beschaffen, zu konstruieren oder zu zuenden. Daran schliesst sich die Frage an, welche Konsequenzen sich aus den nuklearen Sicherheitsmaengeln - insbesondere in Russland - im Hinblick auf den Nuklearterrorismus ergeben. Auf der Basis der vorangegangenen Ueberlegungen werden einige Vorschlaege fuer die Bewaeltigung der Gefahr des Nuklearterrorismus dargelegt. (orig./HP)Original Title

AbstractAbstract
[en] This paper deals with the first study of the indoor to outdoor ambient dose equivalent rates ratio measured in and around the historic objects at various locations in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The IndentiFINDER-N spectrometer results showed a positive correlation between the dose rates inside and outside the studied objects while the Radiagem™2000 survey meter indicated larger fluctuations. It was found that the average indoor to outdoor dose rate ratio of 1.2 for the historic objects was close to the ratio for the dwellings made of materials having nearly the same radioactivity content as the surrounding soil.
