Carl Willis - Invidious

Carl Willis

I work in nuclear engineering in Albuquerque, New Mexico, with a career emphasis on particle accelerator applications in medicine, research, and industry. I'm a lecturer in the Nuclear Engineering Department at the University of New Mexico, where I'm also the Chief Reactor Supervisor and licensed SRO for the AGN-201M nuclear reactor. In my spare time, I collect radioactive stuff, build neutron generators, make plasma art, and travel to places impacted by nuclear technology. In the past I have been very active in the amateur nuclear fusion hobby. Thanks for visiting my YouTube channel!
