NRC proposes changes to its rules on nuclear materials
In response to Executive Order 14300, “Ordering the Reform of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission,” the NRC is proposing sweeping changes to its rules governing the use of nuclear materials that are widely used in industry, medicine, and research. The changes would amend NRC regulations for the licensing of nuclear byproduct material, some source material, and some special nuclear material.
As published in the May 18 Federal Register, the NRC is seeking public comment on this proposed rule and draft interim guidance until July 2.

The energy spectrum and angular distributions of protons emitted from the 93Nb(n,p) reaction have been measured at a bombarding energy of 14.1 MeV with a position-sensitive counter-telescope. The energy spectrum is well explained by the sum of the spectra calculated on the basis of the preequilibrium and statistical evaporation models. The angular distributions are successfully reproduced by means of the generalized exciton model. The multistep direct reaction model indicates a little discrepancy in the absolute cross section in spite of general agreement in the shape of the angular distributions.
