2010:21 Childhood leukaemia around nuclear facilities
The first indication of a possible relationship between living close to a nuclear installation and the risk of childhood leukaemia came from the United Kingdom in 1983. A cluster of childhood leukaemia in the town of Seascale which is located close to Sellafield was reported in a TV documen-tary. Since then almost 200 studies have been carried out in order to investi-gate the occurrence of...

2007:02e Radiation Environment in Sweden, summary
The radiation environment to which the population of Sweden is exposed is dominated by medical investigations and background radiation from the ground and building materials in our houses. That is the conclusion of the first general Swedish summary of environmental monitoring data and dose calculations within the field of radiation. The report shows that people’s behaviour in the form of...

1999:13 Determination of the Neutron and Photon Dose Equivalent at Work Places in Nuclear Facilities of Sweden
Various mixed neutron-photon fields at workplaccs in the containment of pressurised water reactors and in the vicinity of transport containers with spent fuel elements were investigated with spectrometers and dosimeters.The spectral neutron fluences evaluated from measurements with multisphere systems were recommended to be used for the calculation of dosimetric reference values for...

2019:15 3D Thermo-Mechanical Coupled Modelling of Thermo-Seismic Response of a Fractured Rock Mass related to the Final Disposal of Spent Nuclear Fuel and Nuclear Waste in Hard Rock
SSM perspective Background When assessing the long-term safety of a repository for spent nuclear fuel it is important to consider future earthquakes. Previous studies by Yoon et al. (2014, SSM Report 2014:59) and (2016, SSM Report 2016:23) investigated the fracture responses due to heat and earthquakes at major deformation zones using a 2D thermo-mechanical coupled model that uses a Particle...

2019:03 Evaluation of the hydrodynamic model in PARET/ANL
Background The fuel rod analysis program SCANAIR has been developed by IRSN (Institut de Radioprotection et de Sûreté Nucléaire) for analysis of reactivity initiated accidents (RIA) in light water reactors. The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) has access to SCANAIR in exchange for annual contributions for its further development. This ensures a possibility for SSM to do...

2019:23 Participation in the European Committee for Standardization's workshop regarding civil structures
SSM perspective Background During the period 2014-2018, a CEN1 workshop (Phase 2 Prospective Group 3 civil works) have been carried out. The aim of the workshop is to provide a base founded on the French standard in order to be able to establish a possible future European standard for the design of civil structures at nuclear power plants. The workshop has identied which additional...
