60 Years of U: Perspectives on resources, demand, and the evolving role of nuclear energy
Recent years have seen growing global interest in nuclear energy and rising confidence in the sector. For the first time since the early 2000s, there is renewed optimism about the industry’s future. This change is driven by several major factors: geopolitical developments that highlight the need for secure energy supplies, a stronger focus on resilient energy systems, national commitments to decarbonization, and rising demand for clean and reliable electricity.

Neutron-induced cross sections for 99Tc were evaluated from 10-5 eV to 20 MeV for the U.S. ENDF/B-VII.0 library released in December 2006. The resonance parameters were adopted from the new Atlas of Neutron Resonances. In the fast region, all open reaction channels were evaluated with the reaction code EMPIRE-2.19. Comparison of the present evaluation with microscopic measurements and data recommended by European (JEFF-3.1) and Japanese (JENDL-3.3) libraries is presented.
