Division Spotlight
Young Members Group
The Young Members Group works to encourage and enable all young professional members to be actively involved in the efforts and endeavors of the Society at all levels (Professional Divisions, ANS Governance, Local Sections, etc.) as they transition from the role of a student to the role of a professional. It sponsors non-technical workshops and meetings that provide professional development and networking opportunities for young professionals, collaborates with other Divisions and Groups in developing technical and non-technical content for topical and national meetings, encourages its members to participate in the activities of the Groups and Divisions that are closely related to their professional interests as well as in their local sections, introduces young members to the rules and governance structure of the Society, and nominates young professionals for awards and leadership opportunities available to members.

IAEA’s nuclear security center offers hands-on training
In the past year and a half, the International Atomic Energy Agency has established the Nuclear Security Training and Demonstration Center (NSTDC) to help countries strengthen their nuclear security regimes. The center, located at the IAEA’s Seibersdorf laboratories outside Vienna, Austria, has been operational since October 2023.

The medium-mass structural material titanium has been extensively applied in the nuclear reactor systems of fission or fusion, and related data are also urgently needed. In the present work, all reaction cross sections, angular distributions, energy spectra, and double-differential cross sections are consistently calculated and analyzed for the n+48Ti reaction below 200 MeV. The theoretical calculations are compared with the experimental data, together with the evaluated results in the ENDF/B-VIII.0, JENDL-4.0, and JEFF-3.3 libraries. In general, these results provide a satisfactory description of the corresponding experimental data.
