By Fredrik Dahl VIENNA (Reuters) - Iran has invited U.N. inspectors to visit its Arak heavy-water production plant on December 8, the first concrete step under a new cooperation pact aimed at clarifying concerns about the Islamic Republic's nuclear program. U.N. nuclear agency chief Yukiya Amano also said it would take some time to look into how Sunday's separate, landmark agreement between Iran and six world powers on curbing Tehran's disputed nuclear activity could be "put into practice" with respect to his inspectors' role in verifying compliance. Both agreements indicate how Iran is acting quickly to address fears about its nuclear program after the election in June of a relative moderate, Hassan Rouhani, as new president on a platform to smooth its troubled relations with the world. The West is concerned that the reactor, which Iran has said could start up next year, could yield plutonium as fuel for atomic bombs once operational.
