Your tasks

Nuclear power is of interest in respect to CO2 free electricity production. The performance of nuclear fuel is permanently further developed to improve its economic operation, to minimize its waste per energy created and to enhance its safety. The properties of modern nuclear fuels are often linked with microstructural features, both, in the fuel pellet and in the cladding.
