NRC proposes changes to its rules on nuclear materials
In response to Executive Order 14300, “Ordering the Reform of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission,” the NRC is proposing sweeping changes to its rules governing the use of nuclear materials that are widely used in industry, medicine, and research. The changes would amend NRC regulations for the licensing of nuclear byproduct material, some source material, and some special nuclear material.
As published in the May 18 Federal Register, the NRC is seeking public comment on this proposed rule and draft interim guidance until July 2.

All cross sections, angular distributions, energy spectra, and double differential cross sections are consistently calculated and analyzed for n+93Nb reaction at incident neutron energy up to 200 MeV based on the nuclear theoretical models. The theoretical calculated results are compared with the existing experimental data and the evaluated data in ENDF/B-VII, JENDL-4, and TENDL-2015. The calculated results agree with the experiential data.
