Uranium prices rise to highest level in more than two months
Analyst firm Trading Economics posted a uranium futures value of about $82.00 per pound on January 5—the highest futures value in more than two months.
In late October, it had listed a futures price of about $82.30/lb. By late November, the price had fallen to under $76.00/lb.

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.
