ANS seeks program evaluators for ABET accreditation
When ABET visits to universities for accreditation purposes, it’s crucial that a qualified nuclear expert performs the assessment of that school’s nuclear engineering, radiological engineering, and/or health physics programs. The Accreditation Policies and Procedures Committee (APPC) of the American Nuclear Society works to ensure that a program evaluator (PEV) from the Society leads these ABET assessments.

Gas chromatography with a modified mordenite column was shown to yield a good hydrogen isotope separation at only 173 K. A linear relationship between peak height and concentration over several orders of magnitude was observed. From an extrapolation of the data it is concluded that all six hydrogen isotopes can be separated in only 13 min. Gas chromatographically separated radioactive hydrogens were detected with a small volume ionization chamber. The detection limit achieved for tritium was found to be about 0.3 ppm.
