ANS panel discussion looks at nuclear’s place in maritime, energy, medicine, space
The applications of nuclear energy extend beyond providing power to the electrical grid. Advanced nuclear technologies may soon have new applications in oil and gas facilities, in hospitals and clinics, on the open seas, and on the moon.
A June 1 executive session, “How Nuclear Technologies will Shape the Future Energy Economy,” at the American Nuclear Society’s Annual Conference allowed experts have an open discussion on the future of nuclear advancements in multiple sectors.

The LOUHI82 program is a general purpose least-squares unfolding program. It is based on the minimization of the weighted square sum of the fitting errors of activities and several alternative terms related to the smoothness and assumed shape of the solution, allowing varying degrees of a priori information. The LOUHI82 program is a new version of the LOUHI-type unfolding programs, which have been used for fast neutron and high energy hadron spectrum unfolding. The number of energy points in the new version is 100, which makes it possible to simultaneously cover the intermediate and fast reactor neutron spectrum. In unfolding a reactor spectrum measured with an eight-component resonance and a nine-component threshold reaction detector, physically acceptable solutions were obtained using stronger and weaker a priori information.
