2021:21 Region-specific radioecological evaluation of accidental releases of radionuclides from ESS
SSM perspective Background To strengthen the material science research in Europe, the European Spallation Source (ESS) is being built in Lund in the southern part of Sweden. In the spallation process, neutrons are generated when the accelerated protons hit the tungsten target. In addition, a broad range of radioactive by-products are produced that differs from the fission products produced...
