ACRS seeking new committee member
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission’s Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards (ACRS) is currently seeking qualified candidates to fill an open committee member position. Applications for the position will be accepted until July 30. The ACRS is the world’s oldest organization devoted to reactor safety, and the group reports directly to the NRC’s commissioners in order to provide independent technical reviews of and advice on a wide variety of nuclear topics.

The diffusion coefficients of D2 in Nb—1 wt% Zr were determined in the range from 923 to 1148 K. A hollow-cylinder model, used as the frame of reference, adequately described the transport of D2 through the alloy containing oxygen impurities. The diffusion coefficient is temperature dependent and is best described byD (m2/s) =8.5 ± 7 × 10−8 exp (−48.2 ± 6.7 × 103/RT) .
