∗ In this case, there is no indication about EFPD because the real cycle is made of burnup days inside the reactors plus days out-of-pile (mainly due to recycling times).
∗ ∗ The fission products considered here are the following: Rb87, Sr90, Zr93, Nb94, Tc99, Pd107, Sn126, I129, Cs135, Cs137, Sm147, Sm151, and Eu154.
