Nuclear Innovation, Decarbonization, and Environmental Justice

A conversation held on September 15, 2021, that reimagines the technological, institutional, intellectual, and ethical foundations of the nuclear energy sector, and how to root them in equity-centered engineering.

Panelists include Başak Saraç-Lesavre, Beam Fellow, Department of Social Anthropology, University of Manchester; Suzy Hobbs Baker, Creative Director, Fastest Path to Zero and Founder, Good Energy Collective; Denia Djokić, Research Scientist, Fastest Path to Zero & NERS and Levenick Scholar, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign; Aditi Verma, Research Scientist, NERS, Visiting Scholar, Harvard Kennedy School, and NERS Assistant Professor (Fall 2022). Moderated by Todd Allen, the Glenn F. and Gladys H. Knoll Department Chair of Nuclear Engineering and Radiological Sciences at the University of Michigan.

This event was sponsored by the Department of Nuclear Engineering and Radiological Sciences at the University of Michigan and the Fastest Path to Zero Initiative.

Engineering deals with the elemental functionality of nature, usually after the physical chemistry is refined to Engineering Specifications and is ready to apply.
So if, from this POV, Euler's expositions of number pulse-evolution differentiates is reduced in a logarithmic context of 2-ness, to e-Pi-i sync-duration connectivity function, which operates to point out nucleation of hyper-hypo Superspin-spiral Superposition Singularity positioning holography crystallisation, then the incidental job of Mathematicians is to reorientate Number Theoretical Calculus analysis of e-Pi-i numberness inside-outside principles of probability dominance in nuclear resonances via the Quantum Operator Fields Modulation Mechanism of Singularity positioning, floating point Superpositioning of transverse trancendental e-Pi sync-duration.

From observation, the Universe is inflated by e-Pi-i log-antilog interference positioning-location system of holographic crystallisation. Eg when a Laser is "pumped" to a stage of inclusion limit resonances, a light pulse is excluded by conducting in the exclusion time-timing medium-mechanism of emission-> transmission.
The same process applies to all e-Pi-i log-antilog interference structure of the Universe.

Engineers do their best work when they understand the fundamental elemental process.
