Generation of an activation map for decommissioning planning of the Berlin Experimental Reactor-II

Generation of an activation map for decommissioning planning of the Berlin Experimental Reactor-II

The BER-II is an experimental facility with 10 MW that was operated since 1974. Its planned operation will end in 2019. To support the decommissioning planning, a map with the overall distribution of relevant radionuclides has to be created according to the state of the art. In this paper, a procedu...
