Division Spotlight
Accelerator Applications
The division was organized to promote the advancement of knowledge of the use of particle accelerator technologies for nuclear and other applications. It focuses on production of neutrons and other particles, utilization of these particles for scientific or industrial purposes, such as the production or destruction of radionuclides significant to energy, medicine, defense or other endeavors, as well as imaging and diagnostics.

Session Chair:
Assel Aitkaliyeva (University of Florida)
The historic approach for nuclear fuels and materials qualification spanned decades. With the recent rise in the interest in developing and commercializing advanced nuclear reactor designs, rapid evaluation, qualification, and licensing of nuclear materials becomes essential to their success. This panel brings together representatives from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), industry, standard bodies (e.g., American Society of Mechanical Engineers [ASME]), Advanced Materials and Manufacturing Technologies (AMMT) and Nuclear Energy Advanced Modeling and Simulation (NEAMS) to reach a consensus on what approach should be used to transform and accelerate nuclear materials development.
