ANS Fireside Chat introduces new leaders for ANS, UCOR
On Tuesday, during Mark Peters’s last days as the American Nuclear Society’s vice president/president-elect before assuming the presidency on June 4, he sat down with ANS CEO Craig Piercy for a Fireside Chat at the Annual Conference.
The MITRE CEO weighed in on his career path, what excites and worries him about the resurgence of nuclear energy, and juggling work-life balance with his new duties as ANS’s 72nd president.
“It’s going to be a lot of fun. It’s an important year,” he told Piercy.

Theoretical models are developed to evaluate kinetic data corresponding to gaseous fission product retention by solid surfaces. A specific study is performed for the iodine/iron system. The results are in good agreement with the experimental values. The contribution of surface/gaseous fission product retention in nuclear power plants is estimated.
