skos:definition "Plutonium except that with isotopic concentration exceeding 80% in <br/>
plutonium-238; uranium-233; 'uranium enriched in the isotope 235 or 233'; <br/>uranium containing the mixture of isotopes as occurring in nature other than in <br/>the form of ore or ore residue; any material containing one or more of the <br/>foregoing. (From Ref. [30].)<br/>
'Nuclear material' is necessary for the production of nuclear weapons or other <br/>nuclear explosive devices. Under comprehensive 'safeguards agreements', the <br/>IAEA verifies that all 'nuclear material' subject to safeguards has been <br/>declared and placed under safeguards. Certain non-nuclear materials are <br/>essential for the use or production of 'nuclear material' and may also be subject <br/>to IAEA safeguards under certain agreements.<br/>The Statute of the IAEA [31] uses the term <i><b>special fissionable material</b></i>, with <br/>the meaning essentially of 'nuclear material' as defined here, but explicitly <br/>excluding 'source material'.<br/>For the purposes of IAEA 'safeguards agreements', 'nuclear material' is defined <br/>as “any 'source material' or 'special fissionable material 'as defined in Article XX <br/>of the Statute of the IAEA”. The meaning is essentially the same as that of <br/>'nuclear material' as defined here. See Ref. [32].<br/>
The Paris Convention on Third Party Liability in the Field of Nuclear Energy <br/>[33] uses the term ‘nuclear substances’, which means 'nuclear fuel' (other than <br/>'natural uranium' and 'depleted uranium') and 'radioactive' products or <br/>'radioactive waste'.<br/>" (en)
