Proposed FY 2027 DOE, NRC budgets ask for less
The White House is requesting $1.5 billion for the Department of Energy’s Office of Nuclear Energy in the fiscal year 2027 budget proposal, about 9 percent less than the previous year.
The request from the Trump administration is one of several associated with nuclear energy in the proposal, which was released Friday. Congress still must review and vote on the budget.

This study was undertaken to evaluate radiometric techniques for sensing atomic hydrogen in trace quantities at low pressure, for possible application to satellite measurements. A reaction utilizing radioactive As74 metallic surfaces demonsrated quantitative evolution of As74 H3 vapor in linear relationship with the impingent flux of atomic hydrogen. Equivalent partial pressures of atomic hydrogen below 10−8 torr were quantitatively measured.
