Nuclear Engineering. Prof. Orion's work involves collaboration with most of the medical radiation therapy institutes in Israel. His research activities concentrate on radiation physics, simulations, and method development. He received his B.Sc. (1990) in physics from the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, and M.Sc. (1993) in nuclear physics from Ben-Gurion University of the Negev. He received his Ph.D. (1998) in nuclear engineering, focusing on calculations and simulations of radiation release following nuclear reactor accidents. Prof. Itzhak Orion is an expert in mathematical simulation methods for radiation theory, medical physics, and radiation safety.
