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.

A library of cross-sections BISERM has been developed for the analysis of radiation damage sensitivity of nuclear power plant structural materials irradiated by nucleons of energies up to 800 MeV. The library contains information on neutron and proton displacement cross-sections, helium and hydrogen production cross-sections for 190 isotopes. The evaluation of the given cross-sections has been performed with a set of DIDACS/90 codes developed by the authors.
