The workshop should appeal to those interested in neutron- and accelerator-induced activation, radioactive waste generation, transmutation and burnup, medical isotope production and radionuclide production in accelerator-driven physics facilities.
The main objectives of the ARIA meetings are to:
- Promote the exchange of information among experts in the field of neutron- and accelerator-induced activation, radioactive waste generation, transmutation and burnup, medical isotope production and radionuclide production in accelerator-driven physics facilities, and related topics.
- Identify areas where international co-operation can be fruitful in order to achieve progress in specific priority areas.
Topics of discussion include:
- Methods of predicting the production of radionuclides
- Methods of simulating activation of radiation fields
- Reaction Cross section measurements
- Benchmarking of reaction models
- Developments in activation cross section libraries
- Radiation protection and health physics
- Environmental assessments
- Accelerator operations and maintenance issues
- Waste management
- Radioisotopes applications
- Activation analysis with heavy-ion beams
- Facility with actinide beam or target
