Opposites can solve nuclear waste problems working together
Allison Macfarlane

In these challenging times of ever-increasing political polarization and strong differing personal opinions, there is hope that diverse points of view can converge to create solutions for difficult problems if we remain focused on the common good.
For us, the common interest is a solution for the broken U.S. program to dispose of the growing inventory of spent nuclear fuel and high-level radioactive waste from commercial nuclear energy. We strongly believe this is critical to support and enable our projected continuation and expansion of safe, reliable, clean, affordable nuclear power to support the needs of our rapidly evolving national and global societies.

All cross sections of neutron-induced reactions, angular distributions, energy spectra, and double-differential cross sections for n + 113,115,nat.In reactions are consistently calculated and analyzed at incident neutron energies below 200 MeV by using nuclear theoretical models. The isomeric cross section is especially calculated. The theoretical results are further compared with the available experimental data and the evaluated results in ENDF/B-VII, JENDL-4, and TENDL-2012.
