New fusion initiative begins in Germany
Two German institutions—the University of Rostock and the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR) research center—have come together to launch HEDI: The High Energy Density Initiative. The initiative will serve as a fusion research hub to investigate the physical processes and extreme conditions associated with nuclear fusion.
HEDI’s research into the behavior of matter at extremely high temperatures and pressures is expected to have applications for future inertial confinement fusion energy projects as well as for basic astronomical knowledge.

The National Nuclear Security Administration's Office of Defense Nuclear Nonproliferation initiated the Nonproliferation Stewardship Program (NSP) in 2020 to provide an enduring pipeline of nonproliferation subject matter experts to the DOE/NNSA laboratories. This program provides nonproliferation-relevant science & technology opportunities through modernized facility infrastructure. This session provides an overview of the NSP, highlights on-going efforts in uranium and plutonium processing and describes examples of hands-on experimental work and associated modeling and simulation.
