From uncertainty to vitality: The future of nuclear energy in Illinois
Nuclear is enjoying a bit of a resurgence. The momentum for reliable energy to support economic development around the country—specifically data centers and AI—remains strong, and strongly in favor of nuclear. And as feature coverage on the states in the January 2026 issue of Nuclear News made abundantly clear, many states now see nuclear as necessary to support rising electricity demand while maintaining a reliable grid and reaching decarbonization goals.

A model is described for inelastic hadron/nucleus interactions at energies between 0.1 and 5 GeV. The model includes particle production, described by a previous model, and cascade proton and neutron emission, described via empirical formulas and nuclear excitation energy. All stable hadrons can be used as primary or secondary particles. The model is constructed via the Monte Carlo generation of complete events. Average multiplicities and single and double differential cross sections are compared with experimental data and find good agreement.
