CHANDA and ERINDA: Joint European programs for research on safety of nuclear facilities and waste reduction — •Roland Beyer1,2, Eckart Grosse2, Roland Hannaske1,2, Arnd R. Junghans1, and Toni Kögler1,2 — 1Institut für Strahlenphysik, Helmholtz Zentrum DD-Rossendorf, 01328 Dresden — 2Institut für Kern- und Teilchenphysik, TU Dresden, 01069 Dresden
In spite of the planned termination of the German nuclear power program neutron beam facilities in Germany can contribute considerably to research studies on the reduction of hazards due to nuclear waste. Transnational research programs support EU groups who want to carry out projects at the new tof set-up nELBE at HZDR, the calibrated n-flux at PTB and the FRANZ accelerator under construction at Frankfurt. Vice versa various facilities in the EU offer beams for transmutation and safety related studies with neutrons to German scientists under support by ERINDA (2011-2013) and CHANDA (2014-2017; solving challenges in nuclear data for the safety of European nuclear facilities). For work in that field scientific visits are also fostered to improve the exchange of experience between the partners (13 and in future about 35 from 18 countries). Plans for new projects as well as results obtained so far will be discussed, and special emphasis will be given to the present research performed at nELBE on neutron scattering and absorption.
