Panelists discuss U.S. path to criticality in ANS webinar
The American Nuclear Society recently hosted a panel discussion featuring prominent figures from the nuclear sector who discussed the industry’s ongoing push for criticality.
Yasir Arafat, chief technical officer of Aalo Atomics; Jordan Bramble, CEO of Antares Nuclear; and Rita Baranwal, chief nuclear officer of Radiant Industries, participated in the discussion and covered their recent progress in the Department of Energy’s Reactor Pilot Program. Nader Satvat, director of nuclear systems design at Kairos Power, gave an update on the company’s ongoing demonstration projects taking place outside of the landscape of DOE authorization.

The neutrino transport equation is nonlinear due to the Pauli exclusion principle. Enhanced absorption and spectrum hardening are typical phenomena stemming from this nonlinearity. The numerical methods used for the solution of the linear neutron transport equation were applied to the nonlinear neutrino transport equation. The sensitivity of the total energy leakage to the numerical parameters of a sample problem is presented in detail.
