Dr. Benjamin Baker is reactor physicist. His Ph.D. was in experimental reactor physics in which he showed that open and closed loop methods of determining reactivity were equivalent in their ability to achieve the theoretical uncertainties in the measurements. In addition, to reactivity measurement he performed experiments for determining a reactor transfer function and reactor parameters using reactor noise theory.  Dr. Baker did a post-doctoral position with the nuclear non-proliferation and safeguards department at INL, in which he studied tampering detection on cables for unattended monitoring systems used by IAEA. He then accepted a position with the MAMMOTH modeling team. He has done analysis on the TREAT and NRAD reactors. Dr. Baker created the reactivity computer for TREAT and has lead the predictive modeling efforts for the Transient prescription as a preliminary for the Accident tolerant fuels campaign in TREAT.
