Department of Energy Under Secretary for Science and Genesis Mission lead Darío Gil participated in a session at the Nvidia GPU Technology Conference on March 17 that coincided with the announcement of the DOE’s $293 million Genesis Mission request for applications, which invites interdisciplinary teams to submit ideas for projects addressing over 20 of Genesis’s stated national challenges, several of which focus on accelerating nuclear research and nuclear energy output.
“We seek breakthrough ideas and novel collaborations leveraging the scientific prowess of our national laboratories, the private sector, universities, and science philanthropies,” said Gil.

Neutronic parameters in a small room surrounded by the thick concrete wall have been measured and compared with the Monte Carlo calculations. The experimental setups were designed appro-Oriately for each neutronic parameter, and a variety of measuring techniques were applied. The comparisons of both measured and calculated results showed excellent agreement.
