Hash Hashemian: Visionary leadership
As Dr. Hashem M. “Hash” Hashemian prepares to step into his term as President of the American Nuclear Society, he is clear that he wants to make the most of this unique moment.
A groundswell in public approval of nuclear is finding a home in growing governmental support that is backed by a tailwind of technological innovation. “Now is a good time to be in nuclear,” Hashemian said, as he explained the criticality of this moment and what he hoped to accomplish as president.

We present the first semi-analytic radiation transport solutions for the three-temperature (3-T) model: the equations that couple radiation, electron, and ion energy density in a dense plasma. The problem we solve is the 3-T version of the Su-Olson problem considered in a recent radiation diffusion study for verification of a production HEDP code. After linearizing the equations, integral transforms are used to solve the equation, and the inverse transforms are computed numerically after considerable simplication. The results are compared to 2-T transport and 3-T diffusion solutions.
