Atominstitut. Operation of the
reactor since that time has averaged 220 days
per year without any long outages. The main tasks
of
the TRIGA-reactor are nuclear education and training
in the fields of neutron- and solid state physics,
nuclear technology, reactor safety, radiochemistry,
radiation protection and dosimetry, and low temperature
physics and fusion research system detector.

Zwentendorf NPP
The Nuclear Power Plant Zwentendorf is located at the bank of the Danube River, about 30 km northwest of Vienna. The plant was intended to be the first of six Austrian nuclear plants. It is a boiling water reactor rated at 730 MWe. The construction began in 1971 and was completed in 1978 but it never went into operation as its start-up was prevented by a public vote. Today the plant serves as a spare part donor for identically constructed power stations.
Both technical tours will take place on Wednesday, 25 March in the afternoon
