Romain Vial received his Bachelor’s degree in Engineering from the Grenoble Institute of Technology, France, in 2008. He is currently enrolled there in a Dual-Master’s Program in Nuclear Engineering and Physics for Energy. In Summer 2010, he serves as a Visiting Scholar at the Berkeley Nuclear Research Center. His work focuses on an investigation of the extension of application of the Surrogate Method to include the indirect determination of neutron capture cross sections on spherical nuclei. This work supports advanced fuel cycle concepts by extending the nuclear database for advanced reactor design calculations.
