In the research field on severe accidents in Nuclear Power Plant (NPP), most of studies on Source Term have been focused on the evaluation of potential radioactive releases to the environment in a relatively short term, i.e. when the releases are the most important. Concerning the iodine behaviour in the containment, theNUREG-1465 concluded that the chemical form of iodine entering containmentfrom the reactor coolant system is composed of atleast 95% of CsI, with no more than 5% of I plus HIenter reactor a containmentfrom the reactor coolant system.

Within the framework of the cooperation program between the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and Vietnam Atomic Energy Institute (VINATOM), a workshop on establishing IAEA-VINATOM Collaborating Center for Environmental Studies in Vietnam took place in July 2018 in Hanoi, Vietnam. The workshop focused on guidance for the Collaborating Center construction in the field of nuclear and isotope technology applications in environmental and climate change-related research.

Particle and Heavy Iron Transport code System (PHITS), a general purpose Monte Carlo particle transport simulation code, has been developed mainly under the collaboration of Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA), Research Organization for Information Science and Technology (RIST), High Energy Accelerator Research Organization (KEK) and several other research institutes in Japan and Europe
