NUCLEAR INSTRUMENTATION LABORATORY

NE 424

Practical application of materials issues for nuclear systems including welding, non-destructive examination, optical microscopy, electron microscopy, to understand radiation damage and corrosion.

NE 428

Experiments on reactor operation, flux measurement, measurements of reactor parameters, using pool type reactor.

NE 305

Properties of nuclei, nuclear structure, radioactivity, nuclear reactions, fission, resonance reactions, moderation of neutrons.

ME 368

Theory of modern instrumentation, the design and execution of experiments and the analysis of experimental data. Laboratory provides direct experience with concepts in the context of experimental design for hypothesis testing, for product evaluation and for control system design.

NE 550

Analysis of nuclear systems for the production of useful power. Emphasis: thermodynamic cycles, reactor types, coupling of reactor and power plant, design synthesis, and plant economics.
