MIT Nuclear Engineering Graduate Research Expo
March 2017
I recently had the opportunity to present my PhD research at the 2017 MIT NSE Grad Expo. My poster, entitled Nuclear Warhead Monitoring: A Study into Passive Detectability, explained my work to understand the accessibility and usefulness of high energy gamma emissions that are generated naturally inside plutonium based warheads. This research seeks to understand how this passive signature could be utilized in future disarmament treaty verification regimes.
