Division Spotlight
Nuclear Criticality Safety
NCSD provides communication among nuclear criticality safety professionals through the development of standards, the evolution of training methods and materials, the presentation of technical data and procedures, and the creation of specialty publications. In these ways, the division furthers the exchange of technical information on nuclear criticality safety with the ultimate goal of promoting the safe handling of fissionable materials outside reactors.

NRC issues Palisades’ draft environmental review, seeks public comment
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission is asking for public comments until March 3 on its environmental assessment (EA) and draft finding of no significant impact at Michigan’s Palisades nuclear power plant, where Holtec hopes to restart operations by the end of 2025.
Plenary Session
Wednesday, April 24, 2024|8:00–10:00AM PDT|Imperial Ballroom
Moderator
In view of the decline in experimental facilities and experiments in reactor physics, our plenary session is more important than ever. It aims to present the latest advances and emphasise the crucial need for experimental data for the verification, validation and uncertainty quantification(VVUQ) of simulation tools. The aim of the plenary sessions is to present the state of the art in experimental physics at various facilities around the world and to discuss the current and future needs for experiments and experimental facilities for reactor physics.
