Download Nomination Form
The American Nuclear Society has established the Samuel Untermyer II Award to recognize pioneering work in the development of safe, water-cooled nuclear power reactors. The award consists of an engraved bronze medal and a $2,500 monetary award. The award is to be made no more frequently than once per year, and is to be conferred normally during the Annual meeting of the Society. The award is fully funded by a generous gift made by Mr. Untermyer.
Nominations are made with a full letter of recommendation, which includes a narrative summary of about 1,000 words stating accomplishments in the field, a description of the significance of these achievements and period of activity, an appended list of publications, and a brief chronological resume. Nominees may be from any nation, but must not be deceased at the time the awardee is selected. The nominee need not be an ANS member. The selection of the awardee is made by a subcommittee appointed by the Chair of the Honors and Awards Committee.
The subcommittee reviews the nominations and makes their recommendation to the Chair of the Honors and Awards Committee. If the Committee determines that there is no candidate of sufficient merit, the Committee may recommend that the award not be made in that year.
Eight copies of the completed form and supporting materials must be received before March 1.
