1 Appendix II Operational, Shut Down, and Converted HEU-fueled Research Reactors Parts 1, 2 and 3 list relevant background information on the variety of HEU-fueled applications. The information is complied from a range of sources, in particular different versions of the IAEA Research Reactor Database, as well as other open-source material. Various versions of the RRDB (1989, 1994, 1996, 1999) have been used to identify the core inventories. The list of facilities is an extract from the HEU Facility Database (HEU-FD) at the Norwegian Radiation Protection Authority (NRPA) covering facilities established after All civilian (research reactors) and all military reactors (except submarines) divide into groups reflecting the subchapters of the report.
