2023:05e Radiological Consequences of Fallout from Nuclear Explosions
Summary In this report, Strålsäkerhetsmyndigheten, the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM), presents an analysis of the potential radiological consequences of fallout from the nuclear explosions at distances between about 10 kilometres and about 300 kilometres from the explosion, and the effect of various protective actions. The contents of the report constitute a knowledge base...

2024:02 Earthquake stationarity and distributed fault displacements, Forsmark repository site
SSM perspective Background and objective Large earthquakes occur predominantly along plate boundaries. Due to this, much of the research have been directed towards this tectonic setting. Also, the general lack of seismicity data in stable continental interiors, such as the Baltic Shield, have impeded estimations, as well as the understanding, of the seismic hazard in these tectonic settings.

2023:04 Kingdom of Sweden ARTEMIS Self-assessment Report 2023
Foreword In January 2018, the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority, SSM, submitted a request to the IAEA on behalf of the Swedish Government for international peer reviews to be conducted of the Swedish national frameworks for nuclear safety regulation (IRRS) and the safe management of spent fuel and radioactive waste (ARTEMIS). In dialogue with the IAEA, and in support of the then Swedish...

2007:14 Review of experimental data for modelling LWR fuel cladding behaviour under loss of coolant accident conditions
This project has contributed to the research goal of giving a basis for SKIs supervision by means of evaluating experimental data and modelling the nuclear fuel cladding during a design base accident. The project has also contributed to the research goal to develop the competence about licensing of fuel at high burnup, which is an important safety issue. The results are useful as such, but...

2006:15e Safety and Radiation Protection at Swedish Nuclear Power Plants 2005
The safety philosophy upon which the Swedish Nuclear Power Inspectorate’s (SKI) supervisory and regulatory activities are based assume that multiple physical barriers will exist and that a plant-specific defence-in-depth system will be implemented at each plant and that the licensee bears the undivided responsibility for safety. The physical barriers are situated between the radioactive...
