DTRA’s advancements in nuclear and radiological detection
A new, more complex nuclear age has begun. Echoing the tensions of the Cold War amid rapidly evolving nuclear and radiological threats, preparedness in the modern age is a contest of scientific innovation. The Research and Development Directorate (RD) at the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) is charged with winning this contest.

High-performance computing has played a crucial role throughout the history of nuclear engineering. Significant investments have led to the development of exascale computers, with ORNL's Frontier coming online last year. In this panel, we discuss the latest trends in computing and software to take advantage of this unprecedented computing power. We also discuss the impact and best use of high-fidelity simulations to advance nuclear reactor thermal-hydraulics.
