Hash Hashemian: Visionary leadership
As Dr. Hashem M. “Hash” Hashemian prepares to step into his term as President of the American Nuclear Society, he is clear that he wants to make the most of this unique moment.
A groundswell in public approval of nuclear is finding a home in growing governmental support that is backed by a tailwind of technological innovation. “Now is a good time to be in nuclear,” Hashemian said, as he explained the criticality of this moment and what he hoped to accomplish as president.

Proceedings of TRITIUM 2013 | doi.org/10.13182/FST14-T106
Articles are hosted by Taylor and Francis Online.
Overview of efforts in the field of fundamental and applied physics with tritium carried out with participation of RFNC-VNIIEF in 2007-2013 is made. New physical results of studying of muon-catalyzed fusion and neutron excess nuclei are presented; project of a new experiment on searching for a magnetic moment of neutrino using a tritium source and helium detector is discussed. Description of a tritium support testbed for a plasma focus-type neutron source with intensity of 1013 s-1is given. Results of studies in the area of interaction of hydrogen isotopes with structural materials are summarized.
