Nuclear News 40 Under 40—2025
Last year, we proudly launched the inaugural Nuclear News 40 Under 40 list to shine a spotlight on the exceptional young professionals driving the nuclear sector forward as the nuclear community faces a dramatic generational shift. We weren’t sure how a second list would go over, but once again, our members resoundingly answered the call, confirming what we already knew: The nuclear community is bursting with vision, talent, and extraordinary dedication.

The effective U238 resonance neutron capture integrals of uranium metal and UO2 rods of a variety of diameters have been measured by an activation technique. Small corrections have been applied to compensate for departure of the flux spectrum from a 1/E shape. The results are compared with Hellstrand's measurements and with calculations by Nordheim. There is excellent agreement for UO2. For U metal, agreement is not as good, but the difference is judged to be within the over-all uncertainty.
