In the monolithic type pebble bed reactor, the dimension of the reactor core diameter becomes large, and nuclear control for a large-sized reactor having a large output scale is insufficient in a cooled state using only control elements(control rod, boron sphere) inserted into the reflector region. Furthermore, a reactor core control rod, which is forcibly inserted directly into the reactor core, is required in addition to the control elements inserted into the reflector region by gravity drop only. Moreover, cases have been reported that fuel spheres are broken if the control rod is inserted forcibly into the core because the pebble reactor core is full of fuel spheres accumulated inside the reactor core, which causes a serious drawback. 1, record 2, English, - pebble%20bed%20reactor%20core

CANDU plants can be operated in two basic modes : reactor-following-turbine(RFT) and turbine-following-reactor(TFR). Steam generator pressure control plays a pivotal role in these schemes. In TFR mode the reactor power is held constant at a level set by the operator and the turbine governor control valves are used to regulate steam pressure. This mode is suitable for unit operation within a large system network where it is used to supply the base loads while other units are used to supply peak loads. Since reactor conditions remain constant, this mode also constitutes a safer state of operation from the nuclear plant perspective. The control system reverts to this mode of operation during plant upsets. In RFT mode, the turbine load is set by the operator and the reactor is used to regulate steam pressure. In both TFR and RFT modes, the turbine is also used to regulate speed and assist the system in meeting short-term changes in electrical load demand. In RFT mode, the governor control valves also attempt to maintain a constant generator output. 1, record 12, English, - turbine%2Dfollowing%2Dreactor

Turbine suivant le réacteur. Dans ce mode de commande, les charges de la centrale doivent suivre le rendement du réacteur. Pour cela, le programme de commande de la pression des générateurs de vapeur règle les charges de la centrale pour maintenir la pression des générateurs de vapeur à un niveau constant. Ce mode est utilisé à de faibles niveaux de puissance du réacteur lors du démarrage, de l’arrêt ou lorsque la pression des générateurs de vapeur est insensible à la puissance du réacteur. On l’utilise également dans des conditions extrêmes lorsqu’il n’est pas souhaitable de modifier la puissance du réacteur. 1, record 12, French, - turbine%20suivant%20le%20r%C3%A9acteur

A system of a neutron and a proton can form either singlet or triplet spin state. The bound state is the triplet state because the energy level of the singlet state is higher. A system of two neutrons which are in the same energy level can form only singlet spin state, and no bound state is possible.

Adopted in 1986 following the Chernobyl nuclear plant accident, this Convention establishes a notification system for nuclear accidents which have the potential for international transboundary release that could be of radiological safety significance for another State. It requires States to report the accident's time, location, radiation releases, and other data essential for assessing the situation. Notification is to be made to affected States directly or through the IAEA, and to the IAEA itself. Reporting is mandatory for any nuclear accident involving facilities and activities listed in Article 1. Pursuant to Article 3, States may notify other accidents as well. The five nuclear-weapon States(China, France, Russia, the United Kingdom, and United States) have all declared their intent also to report accidents involving nuclear weapons and nuclear weapons tests. 2, record 19, English, - Convention%20on%20Early%20Notification%20of%20a%20Nuclear%20Accident

[...] la radiotoxicité spécifique d'un radionucléide n'est qu'un des facteurs de sa nuisance potentielle. Les quantités produites et leur évolution dans le temps, pour les nucléides de longue période leur accumulation, les phénomènes de concentration et de transfert, la combinaison de ces facteurs, peuvent dans certains cas justifier l'attention accordée à des radionucléides de faible radiotoxicité spécifique. Aussi a-t-on cherché à étudier tout particulièrement les radionucléides les plus importants par leur activité massique, leur durée de vie, les quantités produites ou les voies d'atteintes possibles, autrement dit par la nuisance potentielle qu'ils représentent. 5, record 24, French, - vie%20moyenne

It depends on the context with what degree of precision a molecular entity is to be described.
