New Research Reactor Projects
Oral Presentation
The number of new comer countries interested in developing a program to introduce a first research reactor for them has grown significantly. In addition, the number of projects to introduce a replacement research reactor or to expand the national research reactor capacity has increased as well. Thus, a guideline to insight the overall process of a research reactor project has been asked and...

Utilization and Applications of Research Reactors
Oral Presentation
MNSR with HEU core is mainly used for the neutron activation analysis (NAA), some short-live isotopes production and as training and teaching tool. In order to enlarge the usage of MNSR, such as, medical treatment, physics experiment, prompt gamma neutron activation analysis (PGNAA) and neutron radiography, the neutron beams on the horizontal direction are designed on the both sides of the...

Oral Presentation
A new multipurpose research reactor which will replace RA-3 reactor has been decided to be built in Argentina to satisfy the increasing national and regional demands for radioisotopes. The project, supported by the National Administration, started in 2010 and is planned to be operative in 2019. The expertise acquired in the country, in the design and licensing of nuclear reactors, encourages...
