Division Spotlight
Nuclear Nonproliferation Policy
The mission of the Nuclear Nonproliferation Policy Division (NNPD) is to promote the peaceful use of nuclear technology while simultaneously preventing the diversion and misuse of nuclear material and technology through appropriate safeguards and security, and promotion of nuclear nonproliferation policies. To achieve this mission, the objectives of the NNPD are to: Promote policy that discourages the proliferation of nuclear technology and material to inappropriate entities. Provide information to ANS members, the technical community at large, opinion leaders, and decision makers to improve their understanding of nuclear nonproliferation issues. Become a recognized technical resource on nuclear nonproliferation, safeguards, and security issues. Serve as the integration and coordination body for nuclear nonproliferation activities for the ANS. Work cooperatively with other ANS divisions to achieve these objective nonproliferation policies.

The Consortium for Advanced Simulation of Light Water Reactors Virtual Meeting
Plenary Session|Panel
Monday, November 16, 2020|3:40–5:50PM EST
Session Chair:
Dave Kropaczek (ORNL)
Session Organizer:
Scott Palmtag
Staff Producer:
Dan Goldberg (American Nuclear Society)
Plenary Agenda
The unique partnerships built by CASL brought together a diverse team of talented individuals working in a collaborative environment across the national laboratories, academia and industry. The key to such collaboration is having a shared vision, a line of sight from each individual contributor and technical focus area towards common goals, and excellence in execution. There have been hundreds of contributors to the CASL program during the history of the hub who were brought together under a “one roof” virtual environment with the goal of providing tools and capabilities that have not only high value but high impact with respect to addressing the design and operational challenges of the current, as well as future, nuclear fleet. The CASL Partner’s Panel, representing the CASL core partners, brings together speakers from the DOE laboratories, academia and industry to discuss perspectives on science and applied research, software development and deployment, and impact on nuclear engineering education. In addition, DOE NE will provide a perspective on the transition of CASL and future of modeling and simulation for advanced nuclear energy.
