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
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.

Argonne investigates industrial SMR applications for postwar Ukraine
Argonne National Laboratory will play a leading role in planning and rebuilding a nuclear-generated clean energy infrastructure for postwar Ukraine as part of the lab’s focus on developing small modular reactor applications to help countries meet energy security goals. The latest plans, described in a November 19 article, were announced on November 16 at COP29 in Baku, Azerbaijan.

On the installations AMBAL-M and MAL in turbulent plasma column the longitudinal current of some kiloampers was measured. The fluctuation spectrum of magnetic field was measured by azimuthal magnetic probes and expansion of plasma current by spatial modes was carried out.
According to the experimental data the amplitudes of currents In, sizes Rn and shifts from axis of simmetry ΔRn for 3rd (40kHz) and 5th (72kHz) basic modes were calculated.
