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.
International Conference on Mathematics and Computational Methods Applied to Nuclear Science and Engineering (M&C 2025)
Piero Ravetto is currently professor emeritus of nuclear reactor physics at Politecnico di Torino, Italy, where he spent most of his career.
Over several decades, he has carried out research in the fields of neutron transport and nuclear reactor physics, contributing to the development of analytical and numerical methods, and he has been involved in the study of models and methods for the simulation of innovative nuclear systems (molten-salt reactors and accelerator-driven systems) and for the interpretation of kinetic experiments.
He is a fellow of the American Nuclear Society. He served as executive editor of the journal Annals of Nuclear Energy in the period 2019-2024.
