GRETA, sensitive and flexible, heads to Michigan State to study the nucleus
Researchers announced earlier this month that they have completed major construction of the Gamma-Ray Energy Tracking Array (GRETA), a precision tool for gamma ray spectroscopy that, according to Paul Fallon, a researcher at University of California–Berkeley and GRETA’s project director, will be 10 to 100 times more sensitive than previous nuclear science experiments. Fallon was quoted in an August 8 article published by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab)—where GRETA’s project leaders are based and GRETA was assembled.
Young Professionals Congress
Technical Session|Panel
Saturday, November 8, 2025|8:50–10:00AM EST
Successful siting of nuclear facilities relies not only on technical excellence but also on meaningful collaboration with local communities. This panel brings together experts and practitioners to discuss best practices and real-world experiences in collaboration-based siting and community engagement. Panelists will explore strategies for fostering open dialogue, addressing community concerns, and building long-term partnerships that support project success. Attendees will gain insights into effective engagement models, lessons learned from recent projects, and the evolving role of transparency and trust in the siting process. Join us for a dynamic conversation on how young professionals can contribute to positive relationships between the nuclear sector and the communities it serves.
