title: Radionuclide behaviour in the near-field of a geological repository for spent nuclear fuel
abstract: Abstract Even though chemical processes related to the corrosion of spent nuclear fuel in a deep geological repository are of complex nature, knowledge on underlying mechanisms has very much improved over the last years. As a major result of numerous studies it turns out that alteration of irradiated fuel is significantly inhibited under the strongly reducing conditions induced by container corrosion and consecutive H 2 production. In contrast to earlier results, radiolysis driven fuel corrosion
