This is the second in a series of three volumes of proceedings of the 23rd Pacific Basin Nuclear Conference (PBNC). As one in the most important and influential conference series of nuclear science and technology, the 23rd PBNC was held in Chengdu, China in 2022 with the theme “Nuclear Innovation for Zero-carbon Future”. For taking solid steps toward the goals of achieving peak carbon emissions and carbon neutrality, future-oriented nuclear energy should be developed in an innovative way for meeting global energy demands and coordinating the deployment mechanism. It brought together outstanding nuclear scientists and technical experts, senior industry executives, senior government officials and international energy organization leaders from all across the world. This volume highlights latest scientific and technological advances in safety, operations and management of nuclear science-related applications and practice.These proceedings are not only a good summary of the frontiers in nuclear science and technology, but also a useful guideline for the researchers, engineers and graduate students.weiterlesen
