6 Main Activities of AESJ (1/2) 1. Progress in Academic and Technology Publish and Distribute Academic Journals to our Members and to Nuclear Energy Related Associations Journal of Nuclear Science and Technology (in English), Transactions of the Atomic Energy Society of Japan(in Japanese), and Journal of the Atomic Energy Society of Japan (in Japanese) are published in both paper and online. Online Journals are open to the public from website. Technical Divisions 18 technical divisions, such as Reactor Physics, Fusion Engineering, so forth promote studies, spread information by distributing the newsletters, as well as by holding discussions on specific fields. Technical Committees Gather and exchange information, research and investigate on specific themes such as Nuclear Codes and Nuclear Power Plant Earthquake Safety. 6

7 Main Activities of AESJ (2/2) 2. Human Resource Management, Education Programs, Awards Nomination Contributing to Government Education Program Committee, Research on Nuclear Energy Education Programs in Universities, Produce Text Books for Undergraduates, Encourage members by the AESJ Awards such as Atomic Energy Historic Awards. 3. Dispatch Information towards Public Position Statement, Press-Release, Information Exchanging Meeting with Mass Media, Team Nuclear Codes and Standards To state and produce the codes and standards related to nuclear energy, and wide spread those codes and standards to the public. To organize the lectures and courses. Effort to be endorsed by the government. 5. International Activities We cooperate and support international conferences. 7

9 AESJ Investigation Committee on the Nuclear Accident at the Fukushima Dai-ichi NPS(started in JFY2012) Reinforcement of activity of the Technical analysis sectional committee of the Nuclear safety investigation committee of AESJ. The experts from 18 Divisions, 12 advisory committees and 5 liaison meetings (networks) of AESJ are working on the accident analysis, evaluation and recommendation. Accident investigation was completed; the report was published. Some recommendations were made to government, Japanese society and Nuclear Engineers and Researchers (ourselves). 9

10 AESJ expects to promote the collaboration with UK in various fields Collaborative projects are funded by both governments and funding agencies. Decommissioning of Fukushima Daiich pp is strongly supported. Human resource development is emphasized. Supporting Industries in both countries have some joint business activities. Universities are exchanging students, researchers and professors in various academic areas. Researchers in both countries identify many topics in basic nuclear science including particle accelerator, fusion, advanced reactor technology, fuel cycle, backend, etc.. AESJ expects to promote joint sessions and exchanges. 10

11 AESJ emphasizes and actively promotes Fukushima D&D Safety Alliance to address role of Nuclear Energy for Climate Change problem. (Nuclear 4 Climate) Restarting, Utilization and renewal of research reactors International collaboration and human resource development. Public relation and communication Energy policy and strategy study 11

12 Tokai Daiichi Nuclear Power Station. The first commercial power plant in Japan. (1966) Magnox reactor developed by UK. Now, First commercial reactor being decommissioned. We have started our nuclear power with UK, and continue for the future. Thank you for your attention.
