Going Nuclear: Notes from the officially unofficial book tour
I work in the analytical labs at one of Europe’s oldest and largest nuclear sites: Sellafield, in northwestern England. I spend my days at the fume hood front, pipette in one hand and radiation probe in the other (and dosimeter pinned to my chest, of course). Outside the lab, I have a second job: I moonlight as a writer and public speaker. My new popular science book—Going Nuclear: How the Atom Will Save the World—came out last summer, and it feels like my life has been running at full power ever since.

An integral transform technique and the FN method are used to develop solutions to a class of multigroup radiation-transport problems. The multigroup model considered allows an anisotropic scattering law and transfer from any group to any group. Computational aspects of the developed solution are discussed, and especially accurate numerical results are reported for two test cases.
