  2. CANDU Origins and Evolution, by Gordon L. Brooks and John S. Foster, AECL, 2001-02-01. Doc type: Paper.
    Summary: While the name 'CANDU' was not adopted until the 1960's, the CANDU program can be considered to have started in early 1954. At that time, a team, called the Nuclear Power Group, was established to undertake studies intended to identify a potential Canadian nuclear power system. While the team operated under the auspices of AECL and was located in Building 456 at AECL's Chalk River Laboratory, its membership was drawn from a cross-section of Canadian utility and industrial organizations supported, as required, with "nuclear" expertise provided by AECL staff.

  4. The Essential CANDU, by Wm.J. Garland, Editor-in-Chief, UNENE, 2015-01-01. Doc type: Book.
    Summary: The Essential CANDU is a textbook about nuclear science and engineering pertaining to CANDU reactors using CANDU as the reference design. This distinguishes it from comparable textbooks based on PWR reactors. This is not a product description of CANDU per se. The book emphasizes theory over other aspects of nuclear science. This is a textbook about CANDU nuclear reactor and power plant engineering, not just the reactor physics of the core.

  5. Canada's Power Reactor Fuel Bundle Design and Development, by R.D. Page and A.J. Langdon, AECL, 2017-12-27. Doc type: Other.
    Summary: This pictorial record of Canada's power reactor fuel bundles was prepared to historically record the evolution of the power reactor fuel over the years. No one report issued over the years has been able to describe in detail the various changes that these pictures portray. It should be noted that the record does not include WR-1 type fuel or special irradiation of assemblies. "A picture speaks a thousand words". Full resolution versions of the images contained in this document can be found in the Image Library of CANTEACH web site http://canteach.candu.org listed under the System Index (SI) 37000 - Fuel.
