Abstract
Thorium-based accelerator-driven system (ADS) technology for future nuclear energy is being developed at Sungkyunkwan University. Our research activities include research on computational modeling, partitioning and transmutation, detector development, and life cycle assessment analysis. A brief overview is given here.
