ANS members approve amendment adding YMG rep to board of directors
The American Nuclear Society will include a representative from the Young Members Group on its Board of Directors after ANS members voted this week overwhelmingly in favor of amending Article B6 of the ANS bylaws. The change was mandated by Objective Outcome 5 of the ANS Change Plan 2020.
To keep the number of directors at 16, the approved amendment decreased the number of non–U.S. resident directors from three to two.

The aims, the main characteristics and the organisation of the European Community Fusion programme are outlined. The content of the programme in the physics area is presented, with particular emphasis on results obtained after the Baltimore conference (September 1982). The fusion technology programme and NET are dealt with in some more detail. Finally the present status of international cooperation between the Community fusion programme and other large fusion programmes in the world is reviewed.
