Recent surveys confirm high levels of U.S. nuclear support
Surveys have consistently indicated that public support in the United States for the use of nuclear energy has been increasing in recent years. Four recent surveys continue to suggest that near-record-high numbers of Americans support nuclear energy. However, the survey results differ—sometimes widely—in the details of their findings.

Probe arrays used to measure transient radio-frequency impedance in ion cyclotron resonance heating experiments often give erroneous results. This problem is analyzed and the results are given. A system composed of directional couplers and four probes is proposed to improve the accuracy of the measurements.
