Research Experiences
From 02/2023 To 02/2024
Undergraduate Thesis
Thesis title: Performance study and application of High Purity Germanium detector system for natural radioactivity measurements.
Supervisor: Dr. Mohammad Amirul Islam Chief Scientific Officer, Reactor and Neutron Physics Division Institute of Nuclear Science and Technology (INST), BAEC, Savar, Dhaka
Description: In this thesis, the performance parameters of a newly installed HPGe detector system at the Nuclear Science and Engineering Department of MIST are studied for natural radioactivity measurements in river sediments as a typical example.
From 09/2022 To 12/2022
Undergraduate Project
Project title: Demonstration of emergency core cooling system for a Pressurized Water Reactor.
Supervisor: Maj Sifatul Muktadir, EME
Description: In this project, A system is developed in which an automated process measures the temperature of the core. The system will determine the condition of the core. The emergency core cooling system starts to operate and tries to cool the reactor core with more flow of coolant than regular flow in an emergency situation.
From 07/2023 To 05/2024
Paper Publication
Paper title: Natural radioactivity and concomitant radiological risks in sediments of the Padma River near Rooppur Nuclear Power Plant of Bangladesh: Pre-operational status. (Manuscript review ongoing)
Author: Dr. Mohammad Amirul Islam, Abu Sayed Mohammed Sayam, Md Rahat Ali, Shaiful Kabir, Argho Roy, Razia Sultana Ripa, Maynul Hassan
Description: In this study, natural radioactivity levels in sediments of the Padma River and concomitant radiological risks were assessed. Sediment samples were collected from the Padma River near the under-construction Rooppur Nuclear Power Plant (RNPP) of Bangladesh and analyzed for 226Ra, 232Th, and 40K radioactivity levels using a gamma-ray spectrometry system.
Awards and Achievements
- 2nd Runner Up award for poster presentation at the 4th International Conference on Energy and Power (ICEP).
