ANS is committed to advancing, fostering, and promoting the development and application of nuclear sciences and technologies to benefit society.
Explore the many uses for nuclear science and its impact on energy, the environment, healthcare, food, and more.
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.

Overview of efforts in the field of fundamental and applied physics with tritium carried out with participation of RFNC-VNIIEF in 2007-2013 is made. New physical results of studying of muon-catalyzed fusion and neutron excess nuclei are presented; project of a new experiment on searching for a magnetic moment of neutrino using a tritium source and helium detector is discussed. Description of a tritium support testbed for a plasma focus-type neutron source with intensity of 1013 s-1is given. Results of studies in the area of interaction of hydrogen isotopes with structural materials are summarized.
