TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present substantial steps to expand the safe, secure, and responsible use of nuclear energy, which are critical to accomplishing many of the Administration's most significant goals.
Abstract: Memorandum for the Secretary of Energy Expanding our Nation’s capacity to generate clean nuclear energy is crucial to our ability to combat climate change, enhance energy security, and increase economic prosperity. My Administration is undertaking substantial steps to expand the safe, secure, and responsible use of nuclear energy. These efforts are critical to accomplishing many of my Administration’s most significant goals.

TL;DR: In this paper, a method for damping synchrotron and betatron oscillations of heavy particles is proposed, which makes use of the sharp increase in the cross section for the interaction of these particles with electrons at small relative velocity.
Abstract: A method is proposed for the damping of synchrotron and betatron oscillations of heavy particles, which makes use of the sharp increase in the cross section for the interaction of these particles with electrons at small relative velocity. It is shown that it is possible by this method to compress strongly the proton and antiproton bunches in storage rings, and also to achieve multiple storage of these particles.

TL;DR: The neutrino method is essentially a remote method and does not require contact with the elements of the reactor as discussed by the authors, and it can be used to monitor plutonium production directly during the plutonium production process.
Abstract: The neutrino method is essentially a remote method and does not require contact with the elements of the reactor. The accuracy and reproducibility of the neutrino procedure in measurements of the power and power output of the VVER-540 reactor are close to the data obtained with thermal measurements. For other types of reactors the neutrino method can be more accurate than the traditional methods. The neutrino method makes it possible to monitor plutonium production directly during the plutonium production process. It is possible to develop a method of neutrino tomography for monitoring the spatial nonuniformity of energy release in the fuel core of the reactor as well as methods for monitoring in the case of accidents.
