BREAKING NEWS: Trump issues executive orders to overhaul nuclear industry
The Trump administration issued four executive orders today aimed at boosting domestic nuclear deployment ahead of significant growth in projected energy demand in the coming decades.
During a live signing in the Oval Office, President Donald Trump called nuclear “a hot industry,” adding, “It’s a brilliant industry. [But] you’ve got to do it right. It’s become very safe and environmental.”

A general theoretical scheme for the evolution of a general discrete eigenvalue spectrum in a one-dimensional slab geometry neutron transport equation is described. To make a general procedure, we described the consistent scattering kernel. By using this scattering kernel, discrete eigenvalues are computed. Three methods are presented for the calculation of discrete eigenvalues, but the simplest one is chosen for the computation. Numerical results are presented in the tables. Results are discussed and compared with those already obtained using various methods available in the literature.
