Dr. Martin Ohmes

Dr. Martin Ohmes
BS-EE 2003, MS-NE 2006, PhD-NE 2012; Dr. Martin Ohmes worked on a research project with Dr. McGregor and Dr. Shultis developing Micro-Pocket Fission Detectors (MPFD) for use as real time power density monitors in a nuclear reactor core. Martin presently works at FLIR (formerly ICx) in Tennessee. As part of his research, Dr. Ohmes designed and fabricated what were at the time the tiniest fission chambers in existence. These devices are capable of operating in pulse, mean-square voltage and current mode, depending upon reactor power levels. At the time of graduation, Dr. Ohmes had five publications. Advisor: Douglas S. McGregor
