Abstract
This paper classifies first key issues in the safety of future liquid-metal-cooled fast breeder reactors in order to establish a basic framework for long-term safety research. Second we summarize future experimental research needs especially of in-pile experiments. Among them, it is stressed to reduce or eliminate the possibility of recriticality events in hypothetical core disruptive accidents. We propose an idea of the basic approach by means of discharging fuel out of the core. A new device for discharging fuel is proposed to eliminate the recriticality concerns.
