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
Isotopes & Radiation
Members are devoted to applying nuclear science and engineering technologies involving isotopes, radiation applications, and associated equipment in scientific research, development, and industrial processes. Their interests lie primarily in education, industrial uses, biology, medicine, and health physics. Division committees include Analytical Applications of Isotopes and Radiation, Biology and Medicine, Radiation Applications, Radiation Sources and Detection, and Thermal Power Sources.

he autoregressive moving average (ARMA) solution is derived for the rhodium self-powered neutron detector inverse dynamics. Numerical performance is compared to the autoregressive (AR) inverse dynamics form. A potential difference in the dynamic range of the two methods would be masked by analog-to-digital converter quantizing noise. TheAR and ARMA inverse dynamics methods have equal performance for additive noise and require the same number of multiplications and additions per time step.
