ANS is committed to advancing, fostering, and promoting the development and application of nuclear sciences and technologies to benefit society.
Explore the many uses for nuclear science and its impact on energy, the environment, healthcare, food, and more.
Division Spotlight
Aerospace Nuclear Science & Technology
Organized to promote the advancement of knowledge in the use of nuclear science and technologies in the aerospace application. Specialized nuclear-based technologies and applications are needed to advance the state-of-the-art in aerospace design, engineering and operations to explore planetary bodies in our solar system and beyond, plus enhance the safety of air travel, especially high speed air travel. Areas of interest will include but are not limited to the creation of nuclear-based power and propulsion systems, multifunctional materials to protect humans and electronic components from atmospheric, space, and nuclear power system radiation, human factor strategies for the safety and reliable operation of nuclear power and propulsion plants by non-specialized personnel and more.

Submittal instructions:
Please consider the scopes of the journals when deciding where to submit.
Nuclear Science and Engineering welcomes submissions that explore basic and fundamental research in all areas related to nuclear science and engineering. Submit to Nuclear Science & Engineering – Questions? Email nse@ans.org.
Nuclear Technology welcomes submissions that explore all phases of applications of fundamental research to nuclear technology. Submit to Nuclear Technology – Questions? Email nt@ans.org.
Nuclear Science and Technology Open Research welcomes submissions where authors prefer, or funders require, a fully open publication venue for research articles, and/or where authors would like to submit article types not typically supported by archival journals (e.g., brief reports, method articles, data notes, posters/presentations). Submit to NSTOR NPIC&HMIT 2023 | PSA 2023 – Questions? Email nstor@ans.org.
Thank you again for attending NPIC&HMIT 2023 and PSA 2023, and we hope you participate in this special issue opportunity!

Congratulations to these award winners for all their hard work!
NPIC&HMIT is the de facto forum for nuclear instrumentation and control (I&C) and human factors engineering (HFE) professionals to meet with leaders in industry and academia, discover the state of the technology, exchange information, and discuss future directions. In addition to an impressive list of government and industry leaders, we are also planning several outstanding hot-topic technical sessions and popular plenary speakers, which will attract professionals from across the nation and internationally.
Enhance your visibility at the NPIC&HMIT and PSA 2023 by becoming a sponsor. All sponsors are recognized on the meeting website and in promotional communications. All sponsors will also be acknowledged at the Opening Plenary and on signage displayed in the combined meeting/exhibit hall throughout the meeting. Sponsorship packages are limited, so reserve your sponsorship package early.
