Current NPSS Technical Activities That Apply to Nuclear Power
• Computer Applications • Fusion Technology• Plasma Science and Applications • Radiation Effects• Radiation Instrumentation• Particle Accelerator Science and
Technology.
Current NPSS Fields of Interest That Apply to Nuclear Power
Proposed Nuclear Power Fields of Interest
• What should we be doing in Nuclear Power? Revise our FOI?– Instrumentation & control for nuclear power systems
(CANPS)– Detector technology for nuclear power (RITC)– Non-proliferation measurement systems (RITC)– Modeling and simulation for nuclear energy (RITC)– Next generation nuclear power systems (FTC and RITC)– Fusion in the energy context (FTC)– ITER (FTC)– Strategic Planning for a broader U.S. fusion program (FTC)– Predictive simulation of fusion plasmas (PSAC)– Accelerator based waste transmutation, heavy ion fusion,
neutral beam injection, materials testing (PAST).
Conference Co-Sponsorship• NPIC & HMIT 2009 – US (cosponsored)• ANIMMA 2009 – France (cosponsored)
• INREC 2010 – Jordan (not cosponsored)• NEET 2010 – China (not cosponsored)
• NPIC & HMIT 2010 – US (cosponsored)• ANIMMA 2011 – Belgium (cosponsored?)
Partnering With Other Societies
• NPSS and PES show up under Nuclear Power on IEEE Technical Navigator
• Power & Energy Society (PES)– 24,000 individuals engaged in the electric
power energy industry– leading provider of scientific information on
electric power and energy– Meetings in China, New Orleans, Minneapolis
• What relationship would be productive?• Proposed: Joint support for conferences where
there is an overlap.
New Technical Committee
• Nuclear Power TC for NPSS?• Leadership?• Membership?• Role in NPSS?• Conference?
• Expand current conferences to include nuclear power sessions.
• Better Name: Nuclear Power or Energy or Applications…?
