The research on Reduced-Moderation Water Reactors (RMWRs) has been performed in JAERI for the development of future innovative reactors. The 4th workshop on the RMWRs was held on March 2, 2001 aimed at information exchange between JAERI and other organizations. This report includes the eight original papers presented at the workshop and summaries of the questions and answers for each lecture. Titles of the papers are“Recent Situation of Research on Reduced-Moderation Water Reactor“, “Analysis on Electricity Generation Costs of Reduced Moderation Water Reactors“,“Reprocessing Technology for Spent Mixed-Oxides Fuel from LWR“,“Micro Reactor Physics of MOX Fueled LWR“, “Fast Reactor Cooled by Supercritical Light Water “, “Phase 1 of Feasibility Studies on Commercialized Fast Breeder Reactor Cycle System“, “Integral Type Small PWR with Stand-alone Safety“ and “Utilization of Plutonium in Reduced-Moderation Water Reactors“.
