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.

Synthetic zeolite is the candidate material of the separation column of the gas chromatograph for the hydrogen isotope analysis. Mordenite (MOR) is one of the zeolite, and has been reported that the MOR column can separate hydrogen isotope at about 200K. So, the present authors have investigated the adsorption capacities of H2 and D2 on MOR at various temperatures, and have predicted the adsorption isotherms of HD, HT, DT and T2. In this work, the adsorption capacities of tritium on MOR at 77K and 87K were investigated, and they were compared with the predicted isotherms. The observed isotherm at 87K agreed with the predicted isotherm well in low pressure region. However, at 77K, the adsorption capacity at low pressure region was smaller than that of D2.
