Berkeley Lab scientist Andy Minor (left) and Peter Hosemann have devised a nanoscale testing technique for irradiated materials to provide macroscale materials-strength properties. This technique could help accelerate the development of new materials for nuclear applications, while reducing the amount of material required for testing facilities already in service.
