<p><span>Nuclear energy is contributing to the long-term solution to stave off climate change. However, current nuclear fission technology accesses only about 1-3% of the nuclear energy content of natural uranium, which is inefficient, and also creates a radioactive waste disposal problem.</span></p

Two of the papers in this collection review modeling approaches to turbulent mixing and void drift in sub-channel analysis and the history of magnetic confinement fusion power plant conceptual designs. Other topics of the 11 papers include neutron physics research for the development of accelerator-driven systems, microalloy design for pressure vessel steels, dominant electron heating in tokamaks, advances in safety and environmental concerns, and leak detection technology. No credentials are cited for the editors and no peer review process is noted.PrefaceNeutron Physics Research for the Development of Accelerator- Driven Systems
