South Korea looks to Southern and NuScale
This week, the United States and South Korea have taken two steps toward deepening their nuclear partnership through two notable announcements. First, the majority-state owned Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power signed a memorandum of understanding with Birmingham, Ala.–based Southern Nuclear.

The flow equilibrium problem with prescribed adiabatic constraints may be solved by simultaneous calculations of flux surface geometry and original profile functions. A numerical technique, alternative to Grad's well-known ADM method has been proposed to deal with the slow adiabatic evolution of a toroidal plasma with flows. In the case of field-aligned sub-Alfvénic flow the system is in the second elliptic regime if β < A2/(1 – A2) at the magnetic axis, where A is the Mach Alfvén number of the flow.
