The Missouri University of Science and Technology, in collaboration with the Idaho National Laboratory, proposes to design, build, and test a submersible gamma ray tomography platform for performing pool-side physical, structural, and chemical characterizations of irradiated fuel elements from test reactors. The compact platform will be designed to reside in an irradiated fuel canal or spent fuel cooling pond so that tomographic scans of irradiated fuel capsules may be taken without removal of the fuel from the canal/pond.
