How robots could help verify compliance with nuclear arms agreements
Ensuring that countries abide by future nuclear arms agreements will be a vital task. Now, PPPL researchers have helped devise an automated way to ensure compliance.
PPPL hosts workshop on fusion energy and nonproliferation
PPPL hosted a workshop on fusion energy and nuclear nonproliferation at Princeton University on Jan. 25 and 26. Participants included representatives from government, national laboratories, Princeton University, other academic institutions, and private fusion developers.
Detecting Nuclear Threats with Artificial Reasoning
PNNL researchers use machine learning and data analytics to assist with detection of nuclear proliferation and nuclear material trafficking.
Supercomputing, neutrons crack code to uranium compound’s signature vibes
Oak Ridge National Laboratory researchers used the nation’s fastest supercomputer to map the molecular vibrations of an important but little-studied uranium compound produced during the nuclear fuel cycle for results that could lead to a cleaner, safer world.
Not so Basic: Advances in pH and Phosphate Monitoring Enhance Safety in Nuclear Fuel Recycling
Two PNNL interns are behind recent innovation in real-time testing and continuous monitoring for pH and the concentration of chemicals of interest in chemical solutions; outcomes have applicability not only to nuclear, but to industries.
Remembering 9/11: A Legacy of Homeland Security
PNNL commemorates 9/11 and reflects on the 20 years of science and technology produced since to protect against threats and make America safer.
Toward Scaling Up Nanocages to Trap Noble Gases
Commercially available materials may be a potentially scalable platform for trapping gases for nuclear energy and other applications.
Recycling Gives New Purpose to Spent Nuclear Fuel
PNNL researchers developed an innovative capability to rapidly separate, monitor, and tightly control specific uranium and plutonium ratios in real-time—an important achievement in efficiently controlling the resulting product and safeguarding nuclear material.
Sidestepping the Thin Data Problem in National Security
Scientists are developing new techniques to make the most of limited data in the national security space, using explainable artificial intelligence to extract more meaning from the information in hand.
Decoding the ‘Black Box’ of AI to Tackle National Security Concerns
Cats and dogs. Huskies and wolves. While AI research sometimes seems dominated by talk about animals, the discussions are critical for understanding AI decisions. This “explainable AI” research is critical for many domains, including the detection of nuclear explosions or the movement of materials that endanger the nation’s security.
Explainable AI: A Must for Nuclear Nonproliferation, National Security
Understanding the choices and recommendations of artificial intelligence systems is crucial, especially when the stakes are high, as they are with national security issues like nuclear nonproliferation. A PNNL team is using explainable AI to further the effectiveness of AI systems.
