- Analyze available data and consult with other scientists in order to determine parameters of experimentation and suitability of analytical models.
- Conduct tests of nuclear fuel behavior and cycles and performance of nuclear machinery and equipment, in order to optimize performance of existing plants.
- Design and develop nuclear equipment such as reactor cores, radiation shielding, and associated instrumentation and control mechanisms.
- Design and direct nuclear research projects in order to discover facts, to test or modify theoretical models, or to develop new theoretical models or new uses for current models.
- Examine accidents in order to obtain data that can be used to design preventive measures.
- Formulate equations that describe phenomena occurring during fission of nuclear fuels, and develop research models based on the equations.
- Keep abreast of developments and changes in the nuclear field by reading technical journals and by independent study and research.
