ANS is committed to advancing, fostering, and promoting the development and application of nuclear sciences and technologies to benefit society.
Explore the many uses for nuclear science and its impact on energy, the environment, healthcare, food, and more.
Division Spotlight
Decommissioning & Environmental Sciences
The mission of the Decommissioning and Environmental Sciences (DES) Division is to promote the development and use of those skills and technologies associated with the use of nuclear energy and the optimal management and stewardship of the environment, sustainable development, decommissioning, remediation, reutilization, and long-term surveillance and maintenance of nuclear-related installations, and sites. The target audience for this effort is the membership of the Division, the Society, and the public at large.

Beyond conventional boundaries: Innovative construction technologies pave the way for advanced reactor deployment
In a bid to tackle the primary obstacle in nuclear deployment—construction costs—those in industry and government are moving away from traditional methods and embracing innovative construction technologies.
The Gozani Family Graduate Scholarship was established in 2020 by the Isotopes and Radiation Division (IRD) for students enrolled in or proposing to undertake research in radioanalytical chemistry, analytical chemistry, or analytical applications of nuclear science.
Dr. Tsahi Gozani, PhDDr. Tsahi Gozani has authored more than 250 papers in technical journals and conference proceedings. He is the inventor and/or the co-inventor on eight patents (plus 3 pending) in the area of explosives and nuclear material detection.Dr. Gozani was promoted to ANS Fellow in 1990, for his original and innovative contributions to the development of non-destructive methods for the detection of nuclear materials relevant to nuclear safeguards, nuclear assay methods for online analysis of coal and other minerals, and nuclear methods for the detection of explosives in airline luggage.Dr. Gozani recently retired from Rapiscan Laboratories where he served as President, CTO, and chief scientist. In addition to sitting on the Phoenix board, he provides technical consultation to Phoenix scientists and engineers. He earned his DSc in Reactor/Neutron Physics from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH). He has developed and implemented active, non-intrusive assay and inspection techniques for nuclear materials and other threats relevant to defense and homeland security.
