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.

Neutron scattering cross sections were measured for 14N and 9Be at incident neutron energies of 11, 14, and 17 MeV using time-of-flight methods. Angular distributions for 14N and 9Be elastic scattering and 9Be inelastic scattering to the 2.429-MeV excited state were obtained between 20 and 160 deg in 5-deg increments. The data were corrected for finite geometry effects using a Monte Carlo simulation code. Legendre polynomial coefficients deduced by fitting the experimental data are tabulated. The results of a spherical optical model analysis for the 14N data are reported. Coulomb correction terms are obtained from a comparison of neutron and proton elastic scattering data for 14N.
