Proposed FY 2027 DOE, NRC budgets ask for less
The White House is requesting $1.5 billion for the Department of Energy’s Office of Nuclear Energy in the fiscal year 2027 budget proposal, about 9 percent less than the previous year.
The request from the Trump administration is one of several associated with nuclear energy in the proposal, which was released Friday. Congress still must review and vote on the budget.

The purpose of this study is to understand the ICRF wave heating and the sideband coupling characteristics in the HANBIT mirror plasmas. The effects of the magnetic field strength on the RF field fluctuations have also been studied. Amplitudes and frequencies of the sideband field are found to depend on the applied magnetic field. When the magnetic field strength is over 0.229 T~0.233 T (/ci ~ 1), it is shown that the resonance of ICRF wave enhances the sideband coupling on the lower frequency side. The coupling of two split RF frequencies result in a beat wave signal. This phenomenon is shown to be particularly noticeable at a magnetic field of 0.229 T.
