Proposed FY 2027 DOE, NRC budgets ask for less
The White House is requesting $1.5 billion for the Department of Energy’s Office of Nuclear Energy in the fiscal year 2027 budget proposal, about 9 percent less than the previous year.
The request from the Trump administration is one of several associated with nuclear energy in the proposal, which was released Friday. Congress still must review and vote on the budget.

The total neutron cross section of 232U has been measured from 0.01 to 10 000 eV using the Materials Testing Reactor (MTR) fast chopper. A 2200 m/sec total neutron cross section of 163 ± 10 b was determined. Multilevel parameters are listed for resonances below 30 eV. Results of the analysis indicate that two fission channels are needed to describe the experimental data.
