Description:Dr. William Chuirazzi will give a presentation on some of the w
 ork that Idaho National Laboratories are involved with at the Materials an
 d Fuels Complex (MFC).\n\nWilliam \"Bill\" Chuirazzi is a Post Irradiation
  Examination (PIE) research scientist currently working as the instrument 
 scientist for the ZEISS Xradia 520 Versa X-ray microscope located in the I
 rradiated Materials Characterization Laboratory (IMCL) at the Material and
  Fuels Complex (MFC). In this role\, Dr. Chuirazzi performs X-ray computed
  tomography (XCT) to nondestructively examine a variety of both radiologic
 al and non-radiological samples in 3D\, including nuclear fuels\, structur
 al materials\, advanced manufactured materials\, and battery materials. In
  addition to his XCT work\, he also has experience with neutron computed t
 omography (nCT)\, image processing and analysis\, and radiation detection\
 , particularly with the development of neutron scintillators.\n\nBill star
 ted at INL in 2018 as a Graduate Fellow where he worked on his PhD utilizi
 ng MFC\\'s Neutron Radiography (NRAD) Reactor to perform nCT and develop b
 oron-based neutron scintillator screens. Upon completion of his PhD in 202
 0\, he became a Russell Heath Distinguished Postdoctoral Fellow with a res
 earch project focused on image analysis and combining nCT and XCT datasets
 . He transitioned to his current role of instrument scientist in April 202
 2.\n\nDr. Chuirazzi holds a bachelors degree in Engineering Physics (2015)
 \, and masters (2017) and PhD (2020) degrees in Nuclear Engineering\, all 
 from The Ohio State University. 4:00 pm
