      NNSA awards BWXT $1.5B defense fuels contract

      The Department of Energy’s National Nuclear Security Administration has awarded BWX Technologies a contract valued at $1.5 billion to build a Domestic Uranium Enrichment Centrifuge Experiment (DUECE) pilot plant in Tennessee in support of the administration’s efforts to build out a domestic supply of unobligated enriched uranium for defense-related nuclear fuel.

Powering the Future: Fusion & Plasmas, the FESAC Long Range Planning Report

January 27, 2021|12:00–1:30PM (1:00–2:30PM EST)

MembersANS Members Only


ANS Members, please log in to watch this webinar.


Learn about the long-range plan DOE Fusion Energy Sciences has created to accelerate the development of fusion energy and advance plasma science. This plan is based on substantial input from the research community, which conveyed a wealth of creative ideas and its passion to accelerate fusion energy development and advance plasma science over an intensive two-year process. The FESAC Long Range Planning Report provides a decade-long vision for the field of fusion energy and plasma science, presenting a path to a promising future of new scientific discoveries, industrial applications, and ultimately the delivery of fusion energy.

Presenter: Troy Carter

Troy Carter, Professor of Physics at UCLA

Troy is a Professor of Physics at the University of California, Los Angeles, and is the Director of the Basic Plasma Science Facility (BaPSF), a collaborative research facility for plasma science supported by DOE and NSF. He is also the Director of the Plasma Science at Technology Institute (PSTI) at UCLA. His research focuses on experimental studies of fundamental processes in magnetized plasmas and is motivated by current issues in magnetic confinement fusion energy research and in space and astrophysical plasmas including magnetic reconnection, turbulence and transport in magnetized plasmas, and the nonlinear physics of Alfvén waves.

He was a co-recipient of the 2002 APS DPP Excellence in Plasma Physics Research Award and is a Fellow of the APS. Prof. Carter received BS degrees in Physics and Nuclear Engineering from North Carolina State University in 1995 and a PhD in Astrophysical Sciences from Princeton University in 2001.

The webinar is moderated by Lauren Garrison, Weinberg Fellow, Nuclear Structural Materials Group, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, and ANS Fusion Energy Division Vice Chair.
