ANS hosts an overview of its STEM resources
The American Nuclear Society recently hosted a webinar charting the programs and resources that the Society can provide to students, educators, and the public regarding nuclear science and technology education—with a particular focus on the K–12 space. The webinar, led by ANS senior manager of STEM programs Uchenna Ezibe, also provided updates on the progress and future of ANS STEM efforts.

Based on the existing experimental data and some successful nuclear models that account for the mechanisms of nuclear reaction and details of nuclear structure, we calculate a set of nuclear reaction data for p + 58,60,61,62,64Ni from threshold energy to 200 MeV, which includes different kinds of reaction cross sections, elastic scattering angular distributions, energy spectra, and the double-differential cross sections of six outgoing light particles. On the whole, the theoretical results are in good accordance with the corresponding experimental data, and some improvements are achieved in comparison with the evaluation data of the ENDF/B6 file.
