Abstract

Nuclear energy is the engine of the development of science and a wide range of industrial and technological segments of the Russian economy. The work planned in the national project “New Atomic and Energy Technologies” will make our country a leader in such areas as the creation of high and low-power nuclear reactors, fuel cycle closure technologies, reprocessing and burial of spent nuclear fuel, studying the properties of materials under radiation exposure, as well as thermonuclear research.
