Two new partnerships forged in AI and nuclear sectors
The nuclear space is full of companies eager to power new AI development. At the same time, many AI companies want to provide services to the nuclear industry. It should come as no surprise, then, that two new partnerships have recently been announced that further bridge the AI and nuclear sectors.
AtkinsRéalis has announced a partnership with Nvidia that aims to leverage Nvidia’s technologies to deploy “nuclear-powered, large-scale AI factories.” Centrus Energy has announced a partnership with Palantir Technologies to use Palantir’s software in support of Centrus’s plans to expand enrichment capacity.

The differential cross sections of the 10B(n, )7Li reaction were measured at 4.17, 5.02, 5.74, and 6.52 MeV by using a gridded ionization chamber. Neutrons were produced through the D(d,n)3He reaction. The absolute neutron flux was determined through the 238U(n,f) reaction. The experiment shows that as the neutron energy increases from 4.17 to 6.52 MeV, the differential cross section changes from almost 90-deg symmetry to obviously backward peaked in the center-of-mass reference system.
