DOE awards ANS-backed workforce consortium $19.2M
The Department of Energy’s Office of Nuclear Energy recently awarded about $49.7 million to 10 university-led projects aiming to develop nuclear workforce training programs around the country.
DOE-NE issued its largest award, $19.2 million, to the newly formed Great Lakes Partnership to Enhance the Nuclear Workforce (GLP). This regional consortium, which is led by the University of Toledo and includes the American Nuclear Society, will use the funds to fill a variety of existing gaps in the nuclear workforce pipeline.

Resonance parameters, particularly the radiative width of the 292.36-eV s-wave level in 91Zr + n, have been reinvestigated. The spin assignment J = 2+ is supported. The neutron width Γn = (866 ± 11) meV and radiative width Γγ = (86.8 ± 2.2) meV indicate less neutron capture than do parameters derived from earlier studies. This lower capture, however, is more compatible with integral measurements and a lead slowing down spectrometer measurement.
