ANS is committed to advancing, fostering, and promoting the development and application of nuclear sciences and technologies to benefit society.
Explore the many uses for nuclear science and its impact on energy, the environment, healthcare, food, and more.
Division Spotlight
Reactor Physics
The division's objectives are to promote the advancement of knowledge and understanding of the fundamental physical phenomena characterizing nuclear reactors and other nuclear systems. The division encourages research and disseminates information through meetings and publications. Areas of technical interest include nuclear data, particle interactions and transport, reactor and nuclear systems analysis, methods, design, validation and operating experience and standards. The Wigner Award heads the awards program.

A day in the life of the nuclear community
The November issue of Nuclear News is focused on the individuals who make up our nuclear community.
We invited a small group of those individuals to tell us about their day-to-day work in some of the many occupations and applications of nuclear science and technology, and they responded generously. They were ready to tell us about the part they play, together with colleagues and team members, in supplying clean energy, advancing technology, protecting safety and health, and exploring fundamental science.
In these pages, we see a community that can celebrate both those workdays that record progress moving at a steady pace and the exceptional days when a goal is reached, a briefing is delivered, a contract goes through, a discovery is made, or an unforeseen challenge is overcome.
The Nuclear News staff hopes that you enjoy meeting these members of our community—or maybe get reacquainted with friends—through their words and photos.

Countdown to 2030 - Framing the Nuclear Technology Agenda for the Next 10 Years
Online Virtual Meeting
Thank you for registering for our 2020 ANS Virtual Annual Meeting! We genuinely appreciate the support you and your organization have shown ANS and the nuclear science and technology community during this unprecedented time.
We know. There is no substitute for real, in-the-flesh energy of fellowship an ANS meeting offers. However, we are committed to enabling the most robust technical exchange and insightful strategic dialogue possible with the virtual tools we have at our disposal. Remember, registration gives you full on-demand access to meeting content shortly after its conclusion, so take full advantage of the content in our plenaries and technical sessions.
The countdown to 2030 is on!
See you soon.
