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.

Plasma turbulence driven by the Ion Temperature Gradient) is investigated by gyrofluid simulation in slab geometry for the analysis of statistical characteristics as well as transport and detailed structure of turbulence. It is found that even in the presence of the zonal flows, background turbulence has radial structure with different time scale. However, it is found that this structure is subject to the same correlation dimension, which means the turbulent may be governed by a single dynamics despite of different time scale.
