Published

We present to you large research infrastructures - LVR-15, LR-0 and JHR-CZ reactors, complemented by systems of supporting laboratories and research facilities.

The basic mission of the journal, Jaderná Energie/Jadrová Energia (Nuclear Energy), is to contribute to sustaining the high standards of nuclear safety when using nuclear energy for non-war purposes. The journal is published in the Czech and Slovak languages; selected scientific and technical articles, abstracts and annotations are also published in English. The journal is released four times per year, with 400 printed copies available, and in an electronic format that is available on this website, free of charge.

Energy Well is a patented small modular reactor developed by the Research Center Řež. The project uses the latest knowledge in the field of salt smelting technologies that come from the Czech Republic, thanks to grants from the Ministry of Industry and Trade.

High Energy Load Czech Assembly is an experimental facility for cyclic high-heat-flux loading of components.
