ANS is committed to advancing, fostering, and promoting the development and application of nuclear sciences and technologies to benefit society.
Explore the many uses for nuclear science and its impact on energy, the environment, healthcare, food, and more.
Division Spotlight
Thermal Hydraulics
The division provides a forum for focused technical dialogue on thermal hydraulic technology in the nuclear industry. Specifically, this will include heat transfer and fluid mechanics involved in the utilization of nuclear energy. It is intended to attract the highest quality of theoretical and experimental work to ANS, including research on basic phenomena and application to nuclear system design.

Shunsuke Ide obtained Ph.D of Science from Faculty of Science, Kyoto University in 1989. Since 1990, he has been working in QST (formally JAERI, JAEA then QST) as an experimental physicist mainly on, heating and current drive, confinement, scenario development. He was appointed as the JT-60U theme leader and led the JT-60U experiment in 2002-2004. He has been appointed as the deputy director general of Naka Institute for Fusion Science and Technology of QST since 2024. Also he served as the chair of the ITPA Integrated Operation Scenario topical group 2008-2011. And he serves as the chair of the Technology Collaboration Programmes for Co-Operation on Tokamak Programmes (TCP-CTP).
