EPA administrator Lee Zeldin talks the future of nuclear
In a recent interview on New York radio station 77 WABC, administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency Lee Zeldin talked with host John Catsimatidis about the near-term future of the domestic nuclear industry and the role the EPA will play in the sector.
Catsimatidis kicked off the interview by asking if the U.S. will be able to reach total energy independence. Zeldin responded by saying that decreasing energy dependence on other countries, especially adversaries, was a top priority for him and the Trump administration.

The eigensolutions of the multigroup neutron transport equation for the isotropic scattering medium in plane geometry are found by developing Case's method. The solution of the adjoint equation is also given in an explicit form. The completeness of the eigensolutions is proved by using the orthogonality relation to the adjoint solution. The degeneracy for the continuous eigenvalue is expressed in two ways: the unit vector system and the eigenvector system. In the latter case the orthogonality is formed, and the eigenvector system is thought of as a proper normal mode. As an application of this method, the infinite medium Green's function is constructed.
