Objectives
The objectives of IJNEST are to establish an effective channel of communication between professionals, policy makers, government agencies, academic and research institutions concerned with nuclear science and technology. It also aims to provide authoritative, reliable information on current nuclear and next generation technologies, economics, strategies and resources to industry and governments for use in policy analyses and decision making, including the role of nuclear energy within the context of energy policies that contribute to sustainable development.
The international dimension is emphasised in order to overcome cultural and national barriers and to meet the needs of accelerating technological and ecological change and changes in the global economy.
IJNEST aims:
- To promote the exchange of information in the nuclear science area
- To identify needs in nuclear science
- To promote international cooperation
- To support long-term options for nuclear development and use in the context of increased competition in the electricity market
- To help in securing the availability of technologies and resources necessary to respond to new requirements
- To assess the conditions and constraints affecting the use of nuclear energy
- To contribute to global energy and environmental objectives
- To maintain reasonably up-to-date information on all the economic aspects of use of nuclear energy
Readership
Professionals, academics, researchers and policy makers.
Contents
IJNEST publishes high quality papers relevant to nuclear fission, fusion reactors and high power accelerator technologies, and closely related aspects of science, technology and engineering. Both original research and critical review papers covering experimental, theoretical, and computational aspects of either a fundamental or an applied nature are welcome. The breadth of the field is such that a wide range of processes and properties is of interest to the readership.
