ANS is committed to advancing, fostering, and promoting the development and application of nuclear sciences and technologies to benefit society.
Explore the many uses for nuclear science and its impact on energy, the environment, healthcare, food, and more.
Division Spotlight
Thermal Hydraulics
The division provides a forum for focused technical dialogue on thermal hydraulic technology in the nuclear industry. Specifically, this will include heat transfer and fluid mechanics involved in the utilization of nuclear energy. It is intended to attract the highest quality of theoretical and experimental work to ANS, including research on basic phenomena and application to nuclear system design.
Meeting Spotlight
Nuclear Energy Conference & Expo (NECX)
September 8–11, 2025
Atlanta, GA|Atlanta Marriott Marquis
Standards Program
The Standards Committee is responsible for the development and maintenance of voluntary consensus standards that address the design, analysis, and operation of components, systems, and facilities related to the application of nuclear science and technology.

Calculations for the excitation functions of the 58Ni(n, )55Fe reaction, including those of the ground and first states of 55Fe, 58Ni(n, p+p)54Mn, 58Ni(n,2n)57Ni, 58Ni(n,n')58Ni, and 58Ni(n,np+pn)57Co reactions were carried out using nuclear reaction model codes. The results have been compared with reported measurements and evaluations. The available data on the 58Ni(n,n')58Ni, 58Ni(n,2n)57Ni, and 58Ni(n,np+pn+d)57Co reactions are described well by using the single-particle model for the calculation of gamma-ray transition probabilities of the excited states of 58Ni.
