Jose Rolando Granada

Dr. Rolando Granada is a researcher at CNEA since 1974. He has worked in experimental and theoretical studies of the interaction of neutrons with condensed matter, and in management positions at Centro Atomico Bariloche and CNEA. His recent activity has been dedicated to the study and description of the neutronic properties of advanced neutron moderators for new concepts of cold and ultra-cold neutron sources. Dr. Granada is professor (Profesor Titular) at Instituto Balseiro, were he taught courses in Physics and Nuclear Engineering and directed 11 PhD theses. Dr. Granada has been designeted Scientific Director of the CNEA Project ""Laboratorio de Uso de Haces de Neutrones del Reactor RA-10" (Laboratory for the use of neutron beams at the RA-10 reactor).
