The Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute JAERI is a former semi governmental organization that existed for the purpose of further nuclear power in Japan. It was created June 1956 by the Atomic Energy Basic Law . It merged with Japan Nuclear Cycle Development Institute and became Japan Atomic Energy Agency on October 1, 2005, which currently carries out the purpose outlined in the law. It was called Genken for short. Development A small number of researchers in Japan studied abroad at Argonne National Laboratory in America with the purpose of gaining knowledge that could be taken back to Japan in 1955. Kinichi Torikai, was one of those researchers, and later became president of JAERI. After returning, facilities for nuclear research were established in T kai, Ibaraki . In the 50s it was decided that individual electric utilities would import reactor types to meet the rapidly increasing demand for energy in the post war Japan. In September 1955 JAERI was established as a juridical foundation. In May 1956 it was established as a semi governmental corporation. In order to secure nuclear fuel as well, Nuclear Fuel Industries was also created. Construction of new plants began shortly thereafter, and the first of them, the T kai Nuclear Power Plant , started operation in 1966.

UN Energy is an interagency mechanism within the system of the United Nations related to energy . It was created after the 2002 World Summit on Sustainable Development in Johannesburg , and its purpose is to create a coherent approach towards a Sustainability sustainable energy system especially in developing countries to meet the Millennium Development Goals . To do this, UN Energy is reviewing energy related activities within the UN system and trying to mainstream them into a broader approach. At present, UN Energy remains a very small UN entity since it does not even reach the programme status. UN Energy was established as a subsidiary body of CEB in 2004 to help ensure coherence in the United Nations system s multi disciplinary response to the World Summit on Sustainable Development WSSD and to promote the effective engagement of non UN stakeholders in implementing WSSD energy related decisions.

In astrodynamics a characteristic energy math C 3 , math , a form of specific energy , is a measure of the energy required for an interplanetary mission that requires attaining an excess orbital velocity over an escape velocity required for additional orbital maneuver s. The unit of the characteristic energy is kilometre km sup 2 sup second s sup 2 sup . Characteristic energy can be computed as math C 3 v infty 2 , math where math v infty math is the orbital velocity when the orbital distance tends to infinity. Note that, since the kinetic energy is one half m math v 2, math C sub 3 sub is in fact equal to twice the magnitude of the specific orbital energy math epsilon math of the escaping object.
