Sadman Sakib‘s proposal submitted to the FY 2024 RTE 2nd Call titled “Self-Alpha Irradiation of UO2-UB2 fuel” has been selected for Nuclear Science User Facilities (NSUF) Rapid Turnaround Experiment (RTE) award. The Co-PIs for this project are Dr. Lingfeng He and Adrian Wagner (Metallurgical Engineer and Idaho National Laboratory’s Group Lead for Advanced Manufacturing). This will provide Sadman with access to NC State’s Pulstar Reactor for neutron irradiation of the sample and also access to Center for Advanced Energy Studies (CAES) – Microscopy and Characterization Suite for post-irradiation examination.
Heartiest congratulations to Sadman and the team for the award and best of luck for a successful completion of the project! Thanks NSUF for the support!
