The American Nuclear Society’s annual Mark Mills award has been won by Alfred L. Mowery, Jr., of the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory. The $500 award was established in memory of the late deputy director of the Lawrence Radiation Laboratory, who was killed in a helicopter crash off Eniwetok Island in 1958. It is presented for the best technical paper related to nuclear science by a graduate student. Dr. Mowery’s winning paper was a section of his thesis entitled “A Generalized Variational Method for Reactor Analysis”. He received his PhD at North Carolina State College last year.
