IAEA looks at nuclear techniques for crop resilience
The International Atomic Energy Agency has launched a five-year coordinated research project (CRP) to strengthen plant health preparedness using nuclear and related technologies.
Wheat blast, potato late blight, potato bacterial wilt, and cassava witches broom disease can spread quickly across large areas of land, leading to severe yield losses in key crops for food security. Global trade and climate change have increased the likelihood of rapid, transboundary spread.

Muons, Inc. was formed two decades ago by scientists from national labs to develop a muon collider, the next "atom smasher" to follow the Large Hadron Collider, Since then, Muons has supported 18 postdocs and 7 Ph.D. candidates under DOE contracts and SBIR-STTR grants to develop new technologies and applications for particle accelerators. We are enthusiastic proponents of superconducting rf proton accelerators to drive subcritical molten-salt reactors to deal with the spent fuel from nuclear reactors using a concept called Mu*STAR. We have applied for the Advanced Reactor Demonstration Program ARC-20 to develop a Mu*STAR Conceptual Design Report over the next three years and are looking for people to join us in this adventure.
