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.

The Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor (TFTR) Neutral Beam Injection System has been in operation since 1984, providing neutral beam heating to TFTR experiments. A database development effort has resulted in a comprehensive system capable of a variety of applications. The NB database stores information extracted from programs which provide operator feedback in the NB software event cycle. A powerful and flexible interactive plotting program is available to display results. A shot logger provides the global ability to set a flag in the performance database to describe the basic quality of the shot.
