The institute operates two research reactors; RA [7] and RB. [8] The research reactors were supplied by the Soviet Union. The larger of the two reactors was rated at 6.5 MW and used Soviet-supplied 80% enriched uranium fuel. [9] The nuclear research program ended in 1968; the reactors were switched off in 1984.
The film follows the aftermath of the 1958 reactor incident at Vinča Nuclear Institute and the subsequent treatment of irradiated Yugoslav physicists at the Curie Institute in Paris, which involved the first bone marrow grafts between unrelated donors and hosts ever made in the world. [3] [4]
Criticality accidents are divided into one of two categories: Process accidents, where controls in place to prevent any criticality are breached;; Reactor accidents, which occur due to operator errors or other unintended events (e.g., during maintenance or fuel loading) in locations intended to achieve or approach criticality, such as nuclear power plants, nuclear reactors, and nuclear ...
Pickering nuclear Reactor 2, Pickering, Ontario, Canada: LOCA loss of coolant accident. Pressure tube, that holds the fuel bundles, ruptured due to hydriding. All four reactors re-tubed with new materials (Zr-2.5%Nb) over ten years. [24] 0: 1 billion Canadian dollars (1983-1993). [25] March 1986: Bruce nuclear Reactor 2, Bruce County, Ontario ...

A Self Powered Neutron Detector was being transported from a reactor, through a reactor hall, to a high-activity waste storage pit. A wire rope, suspending the SPND inside a 4-meter tubular bio-shield, broke, causing the assembly to drop onto the working area of the reactor hall beneath, which had been covered with a protective material.
