“Summer time” again? Santee Cooper thinks so
South Carolina public utility Santee Cooper and its partner South Carolina Electric & Gas (SCE&G) called a halt to the Summer-2 and -3 AP1000 construction project in July 2017, citing costly delays and the bankruptcy of Westinghouse. The well-chronicled legal fallout included indictments and settlements, and ultimately left Santee Cooper with the ownership of nonnuclear assets at the construction site in Jenkinsville, S.C.

Fast neutron scattering cross sections have been measured for 13C Angular distributions for elastic scattering over an angular range from 20 to 155 deg are presented for incident neutron energies of 9.97, 11.96, 13.94, 15.94, and 17.92 MeV. Inelastic scattering data were obtained at 9.97 MeV for states at excitation energy 3.09 MeV and for the unresolved states at 3.68 and 3.85 MeV. The data were corrected for finite sample and source effects using a Monte Carlo simulation. Legendre polynomial coefficients for angular distributions and optical model fits to the elastic scattering data are reported.
