\"\"Under the theme of “Life, Safety and Prosperity\u2014Quests for Peaceful Uses of Nuclear Energy through Lessons Learned,” explanations were made of Japan’s pursuit of peaceful uses of nuclear power for the welfare, safety and prosperity of the people, based on the lessons learned from the accident at the tsunami-struck Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plants.<\/p>\n

Models, photographs and other images were used to demonstrate the state of progress at the Fukushima Daiichi NPPs, R&D on technology for light water reactors (LWRs) and next-generation reactors, and other technology involving radiation applications. Particular emphasis was put on Japan’s basic position on diverse nuclear development and uses, and its commitment to the principles of nuclear nonproliferation and improved safety.\"IAEA<\/p>\n

Among the displays at the booth, a model of the superconducting rotating gantry for heavy-ion therapy that QST installed this year drew considerable attention, especially on the part of people from developing countries.<\/p>\n

Also paying a visit to the booth were IAEA Director General Yukiya Amano and Japanese representative Hirotaka Ishihara, state minister of the Cabinet Office. They appreciated the theme and listened to explanations given at each exhibit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
