U.K. releases new plans to speed nuclear deployment
In an effort to revamp its nuclear sector and enable the buildout of new projects, the U.K. has unveiled a sweeping set of changes to project deployment. These changes, which are set to come into effect by the end of next year, will restructure the country’s regulatory and environmental approval framework and directly support new growth through various workforce efforts.

To resolve a discrepancy in determinations of the 10B(n,α)7Li branching ratio, a new measurement has been made at the National Bureau of Standards (NBS). The measurement was made with a 10BF3 gas proportional counter and monoenergetic 790-keV neutrons obtained at the NBS 3-MV Van de Graaff laboratory. A branching ratio of 0.66 ± 0.03 was obtained. This determination agrees with the measurements of Petree et al. and Davis et al.
