Abstract
This dictionary treats the subject field of nuclear engineering as a field of applied nuclear physics: Industrial and other applications of nuclear energy, isotopes and ionizing radiation, and their, scientific-technical bases. Emphasis is placed on the terminology of the nuclear fuel cycle. Other applications of nuclear energy include military applications, nuclear fusion technology, and plasma physics, as well as methods and equipment of isotope and radiation technology, without the aspects of biological applications. High-energy physics is also excluded. The terminology presented primarily covers general and basic concepts, special terms have been included as far as available and ascertainable in all four languages. For selection of terms, numerous textbooks and monographies have been searched and compared, as well as various subject-related journals which have been regularly scanned for years. Standards have been a main source of information, as e.g. the international standards of the IAEA (including the INIS terminology), of the ISO, of the COMECON, and of the World Energy Conference and the IEC. Numerous national standards have been evaluated in search for definitions and designations. Users will appreciate the introduction of subject-field codes indicating the main field of usage of a term. Explanations and other hints are numerous and extensive
