NRC proposes security regulation changes
In 2025, President Trump issued Executive Order 14300, “‘Ordering the Reform of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission,” which directs the NRC to conduct a sweeping, multifaceted overhaul of its structure, culture, and regulations with the aim of facilitating increased deployment of new nuclear technologies and capacity.

Electromagnetic wave propagation in the Alfvén frequency range in two-dimensional (2-D) and three-dimensional (3-D) plasma configurations is investigated by using a recently developed full-wave code, LEMan. The code solves the Maxwell equation globally in a fully 3-D numerical equilibrium geometry with nested magnetic surfaces and implements a cold plasma model with finite electron mass. Energy balance is used for the self-consistency and convergence checks. The code is applied for several 2-D systems and a 3-D system, and results are compared with a simple cylindrical configuration.
