Dr. William Chuirazzi is the Instrument Scientist for Idaho National Laboratory’s (INL) ZEISS Xradia 620 Versa X-ray microscope housed at the Irradiated Materials Characterization Laboratory (IMCL) as well as the group leader for the X-ray and Neutron Sciences Diffraction and Imaging Group. His research interests include applying nondestructive evaluation, multi-modal imaging, and image analysis for energy advancement. As an Instrument Scientist for IMCL’s X-ray microscope, Dr. Chuirazzi nondestructively examines highly radioactive nuclear materials to inform the traditional post-irradiation examination (PIE) process. His previous work consists of imaging and analyzing Advanced Gas Reactor (AGR) TRISO particles and compacts, battery materials, and structural materials, amongst others.
Dr. Chuirazzi is always happy to engage with potential collaborators and X-ray microscope users. Feel free to reach out to him at [email protected].
The Nuclear Science User Facilities (NSUF) is the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Nuclear Energy's only designated nuclear energy user facility. Through peer-reviewed proposal processes, the NSUF provides researchers access to neutron, ion, and gamma irradiations, post-irradiation examination and beamline capabilities at Idaho National Laboratory and a diverse mix of university, national laboratory and industry partner institutions.
