A reactor-neutrino experiment, Daya Bay, has been proposed to determine the least-known neutrino mixing angle theta_13 using electron antineutrinos produced at the Daya Bay nuclear power complex in China. Daya Bay is an international collaboration...
In 2012 the Daya Bay experiment made an unambiguous observation of reactor antineutrino disappearance over kilometer-long baselines and determined that the neutrino mixing angle $θ_{13}$ is non-zero. The measurements of Daya Bay have provided the mo...
We have observed fallout from the recent Fukushima Dai-ichi reactor accident in samples of rainwater collected in the San Francisco Bay area. Gamma ray spectra measured from these samples show clear evidence of fission products - 131,132I, 132Te, and...
The stability of a control system is how easily it can be made to operate at a setpoint without fluctuating. The stability of a nuclear reactor control system is very important because if it does not behave in a …
Measuring fast ions, most notably fusion alphas, in ITER and future reactors remains an issue that still lacks an adequate solution. Numerical simulations are invaluable in testing the potential and limitations of various proposed diagnostics. Howeve...
Two exemplary exothermic processes, synthesis of nitroglycerine in a continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) and synthesis of the explosive RDX in a CSTR, are used to demonstrate the dangers of ignoring the system dynamics when defining criteria for t...
Powder metallurgy with hot isostatic pressing (PM-HIP) is an advanced manufacturing process that is envisioned to replace forging for heavy nuclear components, including the reactor pressure vessel (RPV). But PM-HIP products must at least demonstrate...
I rewatched the show a few times now, and also saw new reactors expirience TSITP for the first time. And the comments I see newcomers make about Jeremiah are: "Why don't I trust him?", "Why does his...
