Supporting ANS now, for the future

From kindergarten classrooms to national security facilities, each event I attended during the opening weeks of the new year underscored one truth: The future of nuclear energy depends on the people we inspire, educate, and empower today.
I had a busy start to 2026, first speaking at the Nashville Energy and Mining Summit alongside Tennessee Electric Cooperative Association senior vice president Justin Maierhofer to explore the necessary synergies among policy, academic coursework, research, and industry expertise in accelerating American nuclear innovation. Drawing on experiences in high-level government relations and public affairs and decades of work in nuclear instrumentation advancements, we discussed Tennessee’s nuclear renaissance, workforce development, and policy frameworks that support emerging energy demands.

The chaotic phenomena of the low frequency magnetic fluctuations in the HANBIT device have been studied and measured by two magnetic probe arrays in the central cell. The HANA (HANBIT Nonlinear Analysis) code has been developed and used to analyze the magnetic fluctuations to determine whether or not it is chaotic. The autocorrelation function of the magnetic fluctuations is obtained at two different positions in the HANBIT device and was also used to determine chaotic transition. The influence of the magnetic field strength on the magnetic fluctuations has also been studied. When the magnetic field strength is over 0.229 T~ 0.233 T, wave bifurcation is observed and the Primary Lyapunov Exponent (PLE) value is increased. Hence, there is chaotic transition at a specific magnetic field strength in the HANBIT device.
