Accelerator Driven Systems - A Solution to Multiple Problems of Society
Offered By: APS Physics via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the potential of Accelerator Driven Systems (ADS) as a solution to nuclear waste management in this comprehensive lecture by Prof. Yuan He. Delve into the world overview of nuclear energy and its role in decarbonizing energy sectors since the mid-1970s. Learn about the components of ADS, including high power proton accelerators, heavy metal spallation targets, and sub-critical cores. Discover how ADS, also known as accelerator driven transmutation of waste (ATW), addresses the challenge of transmuting highly radioactive waste generated during nuclear reactor irradiation. Examine various global approaches to ADS development and their potential impact on society's energy and environmental challenges.
