Kenyan nuclear authority addresses power plant protests
Nuclear officials in Kenya want to engage with residents in Siaya County and keep them informed as the country moves toward building its first nuclear power plant.
The state-run Nuclear Power and Energy Agency said on May 23 it will conduct a “robust, transparent, and multilayered educational campaign to address all anxieties regarding safety, livelihoods, and land,” and that no infrastructure would be built without “broad, informed consent of the community.”

A neutron spectrometry system is proposed to provide information about the ion plasma temperature profiles in the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) cross section. The system consists of two fanlike arrays of spectrometers and collimators positioned horizontally (20 channels) and vertically to the machine (10 channels). The devices are intended for use in both the deuterium-deuterium (D-D) (physical) and deuterium-tritium (technology) phases of ITER operation. For the D-D phase of operation, a system using NE-213 liquid scintillators and a 3He ionization chamber is proposed. A new high-performance neutron spectrometer based on recoil-proton energy measurements by means of a semiconductor detector and neutron spectrum unfolding is proposed for the technology phase.
