验证技术联盟(CVT)该中心由12所领先的大学和9个国家实验室组成,共同提供解决条约合规监控中的技术和政策问题所需的研发和人力资本。基本问题包括核不扩散和保障措施,以支持NNSA的国防核不扩散研究与发展办公室的任务。该联盟的大学合作伙伴包括密歇根大学(UM),麻省理工学院(MIT),普林斯顿大学,哥伦比亚大学,北卡罗来纳州立大学(NCSU),夏威夷大学(UH),杜克大学,威斯康星大学( UW),佛罗里达大学(UF),俄勒冈州立大学(OSU),耶鲁大学和伊利诺伊大学香槟分校(UIUC)。

这些大学的参与者将与美国能源部国家实验室(包括布鲁克海文国家实验室(BNL),洛斯阿拉莫斯国家实验室(LANL),劳伦斯·利弗莫尔国家实验室(LLNL),桑迪亚国家实验室(SNL),爱达荷州国家实验室( (INL),橡树岭国家实验室(ORNL),西北太平洋国家实验室(PNNL),劳伦斯伯克利国家实验室(LBNL)和普林斯顿等离子体物理实验室(PPPL)。通过与大学教授,研究人员,博士后和研究生合作进行研究,并在夏季实习期间指导CVT研究员,实验室科学家将为协会带来相关专业知识。洛斯阿拉莫斯国家实验室(LANL),劳伦斯利弗莫尔国家实验室(LLNL),桑迪亚国家实验室(SNL),爱达荷国家实验室(INL),橡树岭国家实验室(ORNL),西北太平洋国家实验室(PNNL),劳伦斯伯克利国家实验室(LBNL)和普林斯顿等离子体物理实验室(PPPL)。通过与大学教授,研究人员,博士后和研究生合作进行研究,并在夏季实习期间指导CVT研究员,实验室科学家将为协会带来相关专业知识。洛斯阿拉莫斯国家实验室(LANL),劳伦斯利弗莫尔国家实验室(LLNL),桑迪亚国家实验室(SNL),爱达荷国家实验室(INL),橡树岭国家实验室(ORNL),西北太平洋国家实验室(PNNL),劳伦斯伯克利国家实验室(LBNL)和普林斯顿等离子体物理实验室(PPPL)。通过与大学教授,研究人员,博士后和研究生合作进行研究,并在夏季实习期间指导CVT研究员,实验室科学家将为协会带来相关专业知识。

CVT大学和国家实验室组成了一个多元化的,地理分布的团队,其教职人员和科学家具有出色的研究能力和建立良好的合作关系,并致力于教育下一代核不扩散专家。该小组将通过六个重点领域解决条约核查中的主要差距和新出现的挑战:(i)条约核查:表征现有差距和新出现的挑战,(ii)基本数据和技术,(iii)用于无障碍设施的先进保障工具,( iv)发现未申报的活动和无法使用的设施,(v)裁军核查,以及(vi)教育和外联。在上述每个领域,研究生将在该财团的教师和实验室专家领导的跨学科研究项目中扮演中心角色。大学将与伙伴国家实验室合作进行研究项目;强大的现有合作将成为联合研究活动的基础,并且将形成新的合作。学生的直接参与将是CVT研究工作不可或缺的组成部分。

在接下来的五年中,CVT将为核不扩散,保障和军备控制条约核查提供新的工具和方法。我们将对60多名学士,硕士和博士学位的学生进行培训,以他们的才能,培训和承诺来应对该领域当前和新兴的挑战。由于他们将参与的合作研究项目,这些毕业生将与国家实验室系统保持紧密联系。


ABOUT







The Consortium for Verification Technology (CVT), consists of twelve leading universities and nine national laboratories, working together to provide the research and development and human capital needed to address technology and policy issues in treaty-compliance monitoring. The underlying issues include nuclear nonproliferation and safeguards in support of the mission of the NNSA’s Defense Nuclear Nonproliferation Research and Development office. The university partners to the consortium are University of Michigan (UM), Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Princeton University, Columbia University, North Carolina State University (NCSU), University of Hawaii (UH), Duke University, University of Wisconsin (UW), University of Florida (UF), Oregon State University (OSU), Yale University, and University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC). The university participants will execute research projects in collaboration with the DOE national laboratories, including Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL), Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), Sandia National Laboratory (SNL), Idaho National Laboratory (INL), Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), and Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL). Laboratory scientists will bring relevant expertise to the consortium by partnering in research with university professors, researchers, post-docs, and graduate students and by mentoring CVT fellows during summer internships.

The CVT universities and national laboratories form a diverse, geographically distributed team, with faculty and scientists who have demonstrated outstanding research capabilities and well-established collaborations, and who are committed to educating the next generation of nuclear-nonproliferation specialists. The team will address the major gaps and emerging challenges in treaty verification through six thrust areas: (i) treaty verification: characterizing existing gaps and emerging challenges, (ii) fundamental data and techniques, (iii) advanced safeguards tools for accessible facilities, (iv) detection of undeclared activities and inaccessible facilities, (v) disarmament verification, and (vi) education and outreach. In each of these areas, graduate students will play a central role in interdisciplinary research projects led by faculty and laboratory experts in the consortium. Research projects will be conducted by universities in conjunction with the partnering national laboratories; strong, existing collaborations will be the foundation of joint research activities and new collaborations will be formed. Direct student involvement will be an integral component of the CVT research effort.

Over the next five years, the CVT will deliver new instruments and methods for nuclear nonproliferation, safeguards, and arms control treaty verification. We will educate more than 60 Bachelors, Masters, and Ph. D. students with the talent, training, and commitment to meet the current and emerging challenges in this field. These graduates will have strong ties to the national laboratory system thanks to the collaborative research projects in which they will be engaged.
