ANS and the U.K.’s NI announce reciprocal membership agreement
With President Trump on a state visit to the U.K., in part to sign a landmark new agreement on U.S.-U.K. nuclear collaboration, a flurry of transatlantic partnerships and deals bridging the countries’ nuclear sectors have been announced.
The American Nuclear Society is taking an active role in this bridge-building by forming a reciprocal membership agreement with the U.K.’s Nuclear Institute.

Corrections to the extrapolation distance and angular emergent distribution for the Milne problem have been obtained by means of a perturbation method. The exact solution for a simple kernel has been taken as the unperturbed state, and the method has been applied to more realistic scattering models: numerical results are given for hydrogen gas. By means of a combined use of numerical and analytical methods some very accurate values have been obtained for the emergent angular energy spectrum for the Milne problem in the case of hydrogen gas.
