Abstract

This report contains abstracts of articles which address various aspects of quantitative risk analysis, covering the subjects of numerical risk criteria, methodology and data. The articles were published primarily from 1976 to date in technical journals, reports, papers, etc. The articles selected for this report were judged to have relevance to nuclear power plant risk evaluations and to the possible establishment of the acceptability (or unacceptability) of calculated nuclear power plant risks. A matrix of the various risk criteria proposed is presented.
