Scientific Programme

The workshop should appeal to those interested in neutron- and accelerator-induced activation, radioactive waste generation, transmutation and burnup, medical isotope production and radionuclide production in accelerator-driven physics facilities.

The main objectives of the ARIA meetings are to:

  • Promote the exchange of information among experts in the field of neutron- and accelerator-induced activation, radioactive waste generation, transmutation and burnup, medical isotope production and radionuclide production in accelerator-driven physics facilities, and related topics.

  • Identify areas where international co-operation can be fruitful in order to achieve progress in specific priority areas.

Topics of discussion include:

  • Methods of predicting the production of radionuclides

  • Methods of simulating activation of radiation fields

  • Reaction Cross section measurements

  • Benchmarking of reaction models

  • Developments in activation cross section libraries

  • Radiation protection and health physics

  • Environmental assessments

  • Accelerator operations and maintenance issues

  • Waste management

  • Radioisotopes applications
