RaDIATE NewsPost-doc position
Dr. Viacheslav Kuksenko (Slava) started in January at Oxford ([email protected])
Settling in, training, getting up to speed with project
Meeting at Oxford in end of January
NNUF progressStill on track to accept activated materials in
about 18 months (?)

RaDIATE NewsNew Idea for irradiations: Front End Test Stand at
RAL3 MeV protons (H-?)60 mA; 10% duty factor18-33 mm radius sigma beam spotEnergy upgrade later?
FRIB irradiation at GANIL in JuneHeavy ion irradiationmicro-structure and micro-mechanics(?)more later…

P. Hurh RaDIATE Feb 2014 Meeting 8
Technical Meeting TopicsWhat should be the next 2 tech meeting topics?
DPA calculationASTM “standard” versus more technically “correct”
MARS/FLUKAMARS to FLUKA differences (?)Can we come up with some validation test (based on
known microstructural changes with DPA?Low-energy to High-energy irradiation correlation
Can we get Gary Was for a guest lecture? (possible Fermilab seminar?)
Other ideas?
