Thanks for the reminder, I remembered more (if I ever knew : Mrgreen: )!

little reminder demo;

Let F be the expected decrease factor after N years and X the annual decrease (here X = 0.997 and F = 1/2)

X^N = F

ln X^N = ln F
N * ln

: Arrow: N = ln F / ln

If nuclear facilities suffer from the heat wave, so do we before them...
